Sometimes. It is not so fancy here in Japan or expensive usually. We actually consider it like a junk food.

Like cheeseburgers. Of course, like with cheeseburger, there is some chef somewhere who strangles the cow with his own hands and dry ages his own beef and makes his own cheese and charges $100 USD for a cheeseburger and people still buy it.

But very expensive in other parts of the world in my opinion. I have a pet peeve because when I went to overseas business trips in America, my colleagues would try to be nice to me and bring me to Japanese restaurant every time.

And my Japanese etiquette forbids me to complain about it at all. But it is overpriced and not very fresh fish; there is a fishy taste to fish not so fresh that Americans who like sushi seem to have grown used to liking. Like they're trying to like sushi to prove a point and pay so much money. In Japan, very cheap and tasty! Like dollar menu at McDonald's.

So I try to be polite but my real thinking is like, "This sucks! I want pizza! Why did I come to America to eat third-rate sushi?" But instead I go, "Oh thank you so much! This reminds me of home. It's been so long. How long was it? Oh yeah, like 27 hours ago."

Everyone makes so romantic and fancy outside of Japan. Like nyotaimori I saw in movie with Wesley Snipes:

No one does that here in Japan for decades! That is something Western people seemed to pick out and think is so fancy like, "Let's get naked people and eat raw fish off their bodies!" This is weird to me. Kinda gross, actually, I think we only do that here now in very rural areas and only with old ladies and all of them are prostitutes.

Everyone seems to make it special with the Japanese stuff. Like "anime". Everyone outside of Japan calls "anime" like it is specifically Japanese animation. But here, "anime' (アニメ) just means "cartoons". So we call even Disney films "anime". Everything anime as in animation. But Western people are like, "Animmmeeee!" And they dress up to some convention with only Japanese cartoons and eat sushi after and pay $400 for dinner that should only cost $40.

What you say is very interesting because its exactly the point I was trying to make when I asked the question and like every kind of traditional food that originates from a said country it is my belief that things like sushi, pizza or pasta should be eaten in their country of origin and nowwhere else. And as you know I come from an Italian background in which here we are used to eating fresh cooked fish so I personally would not eat sushi. But sushi restaurants are opening up everywhere and there seems to be a notion that sushi is very fashionable these days. Thank you as always for sharing!!

@GuyAnswersGirls123 I'm in the US and I use the word anime as a shorthand for animation in general, which includes cartoons and CGI. Also wtf is that? Why are they eating food off a naked person? e_o

@thegreenyogi I'd prefer it if every town/city had every type of food/meal on earth, sequestering them to specific locations seems like a bad idea.

[TheSpaceGnome]

I don't see sushi as a human food though, its too high a risk for us contracting parasites.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

@TheSpaceGnome The parasites make us stronger! What doesn't kill us makes us stronger! Japanese deep secret to slimness: tapeworms!

[TheSpaceGnome]

Lmfao wth 😂

[itsclearlynicholas]

Hate the stuff and couldn't date a chick who does 😭😆

[itsclearlynicholas]

Smells, looks 😨

[thegreenyogi]

Good to know!!😃

I like sushi. My favorites are the veggie California rolls, imitation crab rolls, caterpillar rolls, salmon & cream cheese, shrimp, crunchy roll, and imitation crab salad. It's pretty healthy for you if you have a lite soy sauce at home or just eat it without the sauce. Our grocery store makes it fresh everyday so no worries of getting sick from something left out too long. I've yet to try a sushi bowl though.

[FreyaRed]

It's edible but If I have the choice between fried cod with french fries plus some salad and a platter of sushi, I'll take the cod.

[jennifer_bloom]

I like sushi because it tastes fresh and extravagant due to how soft it is and it is high protein and omega 3. I also like the way the different ingredients compliment and contrast each other on my tongue.

[petitedollbabee]

I love sushi, from the right place. My favourites are salmon with avocado, and crispy chicken with coleslaw.

[Account]

I am eh about it.

If there was nothing else, I would eat it but I am not particularly crazy about it and I don't get the hype.

[Pinay_ako]

I like sushi because I like fish and avocado and rice. And I like Japanese food.

[coachTanthony]

Love it. All the sauces though aren't good for you but damn so tasty.

[andreasderjuengere]

I feel no connection to sushi.
Perhaps because I have seen too much lifestyle ado about it.
As food in itself it's ok to me, though.

[Reem12345reem]

the taste , maybe i need to try more but I don't know , but the main reason i won't try is bc it;s filled with parasite eggs

[Lynx122]

I love it. Loved it ever since I tried it for the first time :)

[TheSpaceGnome]

No, never had it, never will.

Eating raw fish will give you parasitic worms.

[loveslongnails]

Not something I choose to go out for. It's way overpriced and just not worth it.

[soe11]

• I love it.
• Law fat, low calorie, healthy.

[OtterMan68]

I like it, but without the avocado! You think there's lots of avocado in Japan?
