[QUOTE=riggins44;460511]I can eat sushi, just not a big fan. Don't see the draw. Personally rather put some shrimp, scallops, tuna, salmon, or soft crab on the grill.

Would like to know if there is anything I'm missing or doing wrong? I do know that
not crazy about raw fish.[/QUOTE]

Hard to argue with someone's taste. You tried it and it's not your favorite. The problem I have is with people who say that sounds gross, I'll never try that - and don't. That goes for not just Sushi but many kinds of food. So many people are unwilling to step outside of their comfort zone and try new things.

You should see me arguing with Japanese people about how delicious deer meet is. They are like GROSS, I would never eat Bambi. Meanwhile they will order raw pickled jellyfish with beer the way we order Buffalo wings (it's delicious btw).

If the pickled jellyfish is anything smells anything like kimchee...I'll pass. :laughing-

Ok I figured out why Supermarket sushi sucks so bad. It is because you always get it so cold. I had leftovers (very rare) from my favorite sushi place the other day. When I took the leftovers out the next day and ate them straight from the fridge it tasted horrible. The cold totally ruins the texture of the rice.

Supermarkets have to keep it cold since it is not made to order.

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]I'll eat any kind of seafood if it's cooked. Correction, I'll even eat raw oysters and clams. BUT NO WAY DO I EAT RAW FISH!!! ... YUCK![/FONT][/COLOR][/QUOTE]

The majority of Sushi that Americans is cooked, just so you know. I'm not trying to sway you, I just don't think that most people who judge Sushi before trying it understand that most of what they would eat isn't raw.
