One time I was visiting Japan and ordered sushi at a restaurant there. The waitress couldn't believe it. She was like "ohhh? You like sushi?"

And I'm like yeah it's actually very popular in the US, which made her smile politely and say "oh really?"

After she brought me my food the waitress hung around to see if it would eat the sushi or if I'd be too grossed out. I poured a little dish of soy sauce and mixed wasabi in. When the waitress saw me dip my sushi in she giggled and said
"Ooh I see! You don' like sushi, you just like soy sauce!"

And I was like "n-no!" and grudgingly ate the rest of my sushi without soy sauce just to prove her wrong.

But actually sushi is much better with soy sauce and gently caress you if you're some kind of sushi purist who scorns people for dipping their sushi.

Oh, also: I hate to break it to you but American Sushi is superior to Japanese Sushi.

Cali rolls are okay when you're getting some cheap stuff from the supermarket but yeah I wouldn't order them at a restaurant.


On that note I don't enjoy goddamn creamed cheese in my sushi and I think this recent trend of 'deep fried' sushi is not very good either; although maybe I just haven't had a good one yet.

e: also Europe sucks dickbags at sushi, and steaks too while I'm at it

They used to be my favorite but gradually I've come to hate them. I think it has to do with restaurants putting in too much cream cheese.

Spider rolls are pretty good but it's just the crab that's fried, not the whole roll

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
Only americans would even dream of putting cream cheese in sushi rolls but it is god damned amazing fyi.

Yeah spider rolls are good and I don't mind some fried ingredients but recently (around here anyway) there's a trend of deep frying the whole drat roll - usually in tempura. I mean I see how it could be tasty but in execution it is exactly the opposite of what I like about sushi; bland flavor and super heavy.

I've tried a few of these and they're gross. Bland and heavy as you say and also MMMMMM! Somewhat cooked fish! Just no thank you. Even capers can't make me want one of these.

Fun fact: In glorious Nippon, sushi is a finger food and should not be eaten with chopsticks.
