Ok. there was a post earlier about sushi. I'm a veggie kind of girl and usually can't stand fish, so i have no idea what sushi even is. I've heard it's like raw fish. is that true?

Yep, rolled up with rice and seaweed. Never tried it, I would like to. It really LOOKS good...others here know more about it.

Aquired taste it takes your whole life to get used to it. Everything should be tried at least once but I don't like the rolls wrapped in seaweed.

Since I'm the one who started the whole sushi conversation, I'll answer to the best of my knowledge. "Sushi" can mean either cooked (as in the rolls) or raw fish. Nigri Sushi is raw fish with white, sticky rice. Shashimi (sp?) is just the raw fish without the rice. Some people don't like it because it's raw and it grosses them out or they don't like the consistency. My Mother is a great example! This woman will scrap the pulp off of an avocado leaf with her teeth but she won't even touch a California or Philadelphia roll. It cracks me up!!

Well, I didn't know that. I thought all sushi was raw fish. Maybe I'll try it sooner rather than later.

Before you go, get someone to go with you who can suggest things for you to try since you are a "sushi virgin!"

I know if I had tried eel for the first time, I would have hurled on the sushi bar and gone screamin' for the door!!

Of course...i can't imagine just walking in cold turkey. Whew, that might be a disaster. I have a one friend that eats sushi...guess if I ever get the urge, I'll see if she'll go, make it a girl thing. I really doubt my husband would go.
