Who likes sushi?

[rynochop]

Love it...i guess some in here would really freak out over ceviche.

When we go saltwater fishing, the first fish gets fileted and diced, a bunch of lime juice poured on it, cut up a jalapeno and a red onion, wait 30 minutes and eat w/ tortilla chips.

I like ceviche fine, but it's probably my wife's favorite food.

Also: steak tartare. Yum.

Its kind of odd but Barbeque and Sushi are my favorites,maybe its the simplicity of both but it takes years to get it right.

Why wait 30 minutes?

Why wait 30 minutes?

I think you wait 30 minutes for the acids in the lime/lemon to cook the fish.

You are spending a ton of time on Wikipedia today, huh?

Sorry. I just knew what you were spouting wasn't right and went to find exactly what it was.

WIKI was what I sourced.


My apologies for factually clarifying.

I went sea kayaking a few years ago off the Oregon Coast. We caught Rockfish and made our own sashimi that night while camping in a yurt on the beach. It was so fresh it was still gilling when I sliced it.

Yeah, fresh fish is simply perfection. It almost melts in your mouth....but I kind of shy away from eating it raw unless it's frozen first. Some bacteria from the ocean, and fresh water for that matter, can be pretty dangerous if the fish you eat happens to be contaminated with it. The chances of that are low, but high enough to scare me away, lol...

But your clarification is inaccurate. The term sushi refers to the rice which is vinegared. That is where the "sour tasting" reference comes in.

You are confusing the word roots (what you are talking about) with its usage and definition (which is the part that is actually relevant to this discussion, and, of course, what I was talking about).

Eating raw is a risk. I haven't gotten any bad sushi (knock wood), but I got my --- handed to me twice from eating raw clams and it was a brutal experience. I still eat them occasionally but I know full well what I'm risking.

To each there own but I'm not a vampire so I don't like blood :laugh1:

Wussy!

 

[KJJ]

i'm probably going to be laughed at for saying this, but i have never had sushi.

Me neither it just doesn't look appetizing to me. I use to know a guy who ate sushi all the time and had the worst body odor. I think it was a combination of all the Chinese food and sushi he ate.

shellfish, yes. But raw fish is generally safer than cooked meat or poultry

Haha really?

Sushi is a simple food. It doesn't have weird spices and stuff like Curry that will change body odor. It's pretty much just meat and rice, with some sea weed and stuff like that.

I'm okay with sushi, but it seems for me to get good sushi I have to pay a lot to get it. I’ve had “normal priced” priced sushi and it wasn’t that good, but when I pay top dollar I get good/great sushi. Other restaurant food there doesn’t seem to be that huge a difference to what I pay to what I get. I can go to Morton’s steakhouse and get a $50 steak, but I can honestly say it’s not that big a difference to what I would pay at an Outback Steakhouse restaurant; especially when you consider the price difference. Heck, I've grilled steaks at home where I would put them up with some of the best places out there. Yes, there is a difference, but not as much as there is with sushi restaurants. I’ve noticed this across the country.

...it is because he didn't take many showers.

Out of Asia and the sub-continent the most odorous foods would typically be the Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi.

Laotian, Thai and Vietnamese typically feature fresh herbs and veggies with lime, garlic and chilies being the primary flavours.

Japanese food has the most art and subtlety to it. They do not feature strong odorous cooking or flavours. Like their culture their food is often presnted in a way that resembles art.

The Chinese have the widest palate and the greatest variety of cooking. If it flies, swims, runs or slithers it on the table. They have the largest variety of cooking styles with the spice rack featuring flavours from Europe to Russia to the subcontinent.

From my recent visits I think China is single handedly trying to depopulate the world of all animal species and serve it on the supper table.

Then it must have been the Chinese food or he saturates his body in garlic. We've all smelled that odor whether it's someone at the gym or someone standing in line at the grocery store. It's an awful smell that can literally turn your stomach.

It had nothing to do with not taking showers he was aware of the problem I believe it was the garlic in his diet. There is a rare condition that can cause a fishy odor on a person that they can't detect but other people can but for a good percentage of people who have body odor issues it's something in their diet. Here's an article on how a change in diet can eliminate body odor.

Garlic and onions are one of the worst offenders it absorbs into the blood and can leave the body through sweat that's the most common odor at gyms.

Maybe he has some bodily disorder or maybe he just doesn't wash very well of often enough. I don't think I've ever heard of someone being stank because of the food they eat. I'm not saying it isn't possible, just never heard of it.

Edit: Just saw your article above. But I still don't think his body order has anything to do with sushi or raw fish.

Anyone who has body odor issues is bound to have someone close to them make them aware of the problem. These people shower up to 3 times a day and can't get rid of the odor because it's either a disorder or something in their diet. Click on the links to the articles I posted.

There is no way sushi gives anyone bad body odor. I don't think I've ever had sushi with garlic. I'm Italian and I smell pretty good. I eat garlic just about everyday, tons of it.
