Sushi?

Sashimi for the most part makes me feel sick, cooked nigiri I rate.

I prefer the Sushi to the Sashimi. I'm not a big fan of the Maki.

1. Sushi
2. Sashimi
3. I don't really like Maki

I hate sushi. Only things I remotely enjoyed were things that used crab meat.

if youre not too experienced, you should try getting stuff that has tempura in it e.g. rock and roll or spider roll.

I'm pretty particular about my food. I generally eat only 'americanized' foodstuffs and those tend to be mild flavored. I can't tolerate anything with a strong flavor (condoments for example). It's kindof hard to explain without actually showing you how I eat.

I know lots of people like this.

You've gotta be careful becuase in the long run if it's making you avoid a wider range of foods then you're probably also avoiding some healthier foods, if so you need to knuckle down and force yourself to adopt a wider and therefore better diet.

Of course, being picky doesn't automatically mean you're eating badly, but often.

Yeah, in my case what you're saying is very true.

Foo, you know as well as I do that Internet rule #4234.b clearly states that all screen captures taken from Family Guy must cite the episode number in the lower right corner of the image in 8pt New Courier MS.

I made some sushi last week with the gf. My little sister had given me some real japanese sushi-rice, rice vinegar, wasabi sauce and a pack of Nori.

I had no previous experience with making it, so I looked up a recipe for the sushi-rice on wikipedia, got me some fresh raw tuna, smoked salmon. and it was absolutely marvelous.

Cooking the sushi-rice, making the vinegar-dressing, mixing it on a lower temperature was the most tricky part imo.

And I'm still not sure whether it's better to put the rice as a small stroke in the middle of the nori, or to spread it across the whole nori. Anyway, it still tastes the same :)
fuck off sigs

tastes used to be like that in britain before the EU and the spread of indian food changed everyone's palate. there was a survey done not so long ago of cheese sales in the UK, and it turns out that sales of mild cheddar have plummetted in favour of stronger mature cheddars. they put this down to people being put off bland traditional fare by european and indian subcontinent food

i hate traditional english food myself (apart from full english breakfast, which i never eat these days anyway) precisely because is it so bland. gimme indian or italian any day

oh yeah, sushi. good stuff. wasabi is the shit :icon14:

I love most italian food but indian wasn't really my thing. I can eat asian food if I have to but I never choose to eat it. I'm the same way with cheese too, I can't eat most of that stronger stuff.
