Sushi- Love or Hate?

[X4biddenxLustX]

I LOVE it, I guess it goes along with being asian haha. My favorite kind is with tuna and eel. I also like just taking a chunk of raw tuna and slicing it into thin to medium slices and having it with soy sauce, sesame oil, and sushi ginger on top of rice. Not sure what the actual name of having it that way is called?

It's funny though, I have absolutely no issues and have never found the idea of eating raw seafood gross but I refuse to eat meat that isn't fully cooked. Raw meat now grosses me out eww.

I am getting the ultimate fix when I got to Tokyo this year!!!

Dear Sweet Flying Spaghetti Monster, I *ADORE* Sushi and Sashimi. Raw fish of any sort is a-okay by me.

This thread is making me so hungry. I wish we had a sushi delivery service in Austin...

I freaking LOVE sushi!!!!!!!!! My bf hates it. We were JUST arguing about where to eat tonight cuz everytime we go out to eat, I always want sushi and he can't stand it, but I don't care. We can never agree on a restaurant. At any other restaurant, I can make half the shit on the menu better than they can anyways. But I can't make sushi nor could I ever get sick of it. I am so tempted to just go out to eat by myself and let him figure out his own dinner tonight.

I remember trying sushi for the first time and spitting it out into the nearest trash can. That was a few years ago and it turned me off of sushi for the longest time.
Then recently, my friends convinced me to have some sushi with them and I absolutely love it.

I love sushi - damn, I just had a big ol' bacon cheeseburger, and now I'm hungry for sushi!! I guess I'll grab some tomorrow. There's a place here that makes this roll with crab and mango - it's soooo yummy!

bleugh.

I think for a lot of ppl its a turn off mentally. One time, I made my bf try a california roll. He was reading the menu, and asked, "what's roe?" At the time I couldn't remember. So he got on, enjoying his rolls until I blurted out, "oh, yeah, roe is fish eggs!" He spit it out and said he'd never eat that shit again. I wish he could just get over the mental gross-out.

I love love love anything with fatty stuff, especially eel, salmon, avocado, nuts and cream cheese. Does anyone else adore deep fried rolls? Those are AMAZING! The thing I love about sushi restaurants is how adventurous it is. I always get the strangest thing on the menu in addition to my favorites. And I also love that there are endless combinations with rolls.

I am SOOO hungry now!

Love, Love, Love!

There are some that I really love and others that I REALLY hate! I will chow down on Philadelphia rolls covered in Wasabi any day though .... yummy stuff!

Love sushi!!! SOooo good. I could eat it everyday. But the major thing is that I recently developed an allergy against fish. Now I can't have fish sushi anymore and it's the saddest thing ever.

My bf actually learned how to make sushi at home so we make it sometimes now. I just have veggie and chicken terriyaki sushi now, he even makes the tempura sushi. I'm so bummed I can't have the fish ones anymore.

when its raw fish... No thanks.
my tastes in Seafood is limited to Salmon and shrimp. cooked please!

 

[k.a.t]

I hate it

The smell is just too strong and fishy for me (duh what did I expect, it's FISH lol), but also I just don't like the taste of it. Plus c.old fish is just weird for me...I only really eat hot foods.

 

[abbyquack]

I definitely caved and got sushi tonight- amazing as always!!

I hope everyone else's cravings are satisfied soon too! And if you don't like fish, I was reading the menu, they have like steak rolls and veggie rolls so there's no raw meat or seafood. I don't know if it's any good, but it might be worth a try!

 

[abbey_08]

im a bit of a wimp when it comes too food! im too scared to try it because its raw! but i also wont try mince pies because the word 'mince' puts me off for god knows what reason!

 

[gigglegirl]

sushi itself is not raw. Stay away from sashimi--def. raw! I don't eat any raw fish, barely any seafood at all but there are a lot of other options!

I find the restaurant can really make or break someone's impression of sushi. I've tried several other places than my FAVE one, and honestly, if I had gone to many of these other places first, I would never have tried it again. Some just are so gross, apparently I dont deal well with the cheaper roll places...[though my wallet would like it]

 

[mizuki~]

Love sushi. Hate the price...

oh and hate the wasabi too

 

[ticki]

sushi = <3

that's my equation for a good meal. lol.

first time i had sushi, i definitely had to get over the mental aspect of raw fish. i drowned that poor piece of fish in soy sauce, wasabi and pickled ginger. the more i ate it, the less grossed out i became and now it's probably one of my favorite foods.

it's become such that i prefer raw fish over cooked fish. the taste and texture of the fish is so fantastic. a good piece of fatty tuna (toro) is to die for. i'll sometimes do rolls when there's a unique on the menu that catches my eye, but i mostly feel that rolls are for people who want to eat sushi without really eating sushi. california roll? bleh. i avoid it at all costs. yes, i've become a sushi snob... T_T

How bad is your allergy? Hope it's not life threatening! My mom was allergic to shellfish but she loves it so much - she'd eat a little bit slowly and eat little more the next time so she built up her tolerance for it - no longer allergic! =)

I was the same way with mangos (my favorite fruit!) - it would make my mouth itch, but I'd eat it anyway and I'm no longer allergic either! =)

If your allergy to fish isn't that bad, you could probably build your tolerance back up!
