So You Like Sushi

We're about ready to leave for my better half's therapy and my walk. It's a little cool and cloudy today. Hope I don't get caught in the rain. But I wont melt in any case. I've rang door bells in our building but evidently we are the only ones home. My better half's daughter brought us an expensive container of sushi yesterday. I don't have a clue why she did it. She knows we are vegetarians and I wouldn't want to eat raw fish anyway. I hoped I could give it to neighbor, but it might be just as well no one was home, If they were poisoned I would be sued. I hate to throw out expensive food. But it's all I know to do. See you guys later. I'll fix a bite to eat and we're off.

I used to like fried fish when the kids went fishing and they cleaned the fish.

Look, some of us would gladly accept that container. Unfortunately we aren't your neighbors. We'd accept the food poisoning as well.

I'm sorry it's going to waste and your better half's daughter didn't know you don't eat sushi. I don't either. I like my fish cooked.

@RubyHawk I like most of my meat cooked. I do like a good rare steak, and if the hamburger is the best quality, I will eat a cannibal sandwich. I haven't had one of those in years because the quality isn't there any longer. So all my meat is mostly well done now.

Not all sushi has raw fish, raw fish is not even an essential part of Sushi, sushi is vinegared rice wrapped in nori or laver or a kind of seaweed that is the base, now it could be eaten as is or mixed with anything you want, this is where the raw fish myth comes in

That's something I asked her too, Judy. Maybe her daughter bought her some that didn't have any fish in it at all but didn't think to tell her. I don't eat it either and I'm not interested in trying to any whether or not there's fish cooked or raw in it, but I'd call and ask first and maybe give it back.

@louievill I don't think there was raw fish in the sushi I've eaten. Usually it seems to be salmon or tuna with other bits and pieces.

Sushi is a vegetarian dish except if you opt for those with crab meat or other seafood and its not raw.

@louievill I think it's a lost cause, Louie. Everyone thinks it's raw fish and we probably always will think that way even after seeing your link on another comment.

That's weird that she'd bring you sushi. I know some people just eat fish, but vegetarian is a pretty distinctive difference.

Think you got it all wrong and mixed up, sushi is not raw fish, its vinegared rice wrapped and rolled in a seaweed called nore, its really vegetarian most of the time, depending on your choice of filling usually mangoes, cucumbers etc.. the only thing not vegetarian about it is if you opt for the one with crab meat or some seafood and mind you it's not raw. The dip is usually dark soy and wasabi that does not contain any animal protein. It's a very healrhy dish. What you are referring to as raw fish is sashimi which is an entirely different Japanese food., its also dipped on the same soy and wasabi.

@sol_cee of course I love it, sushi I think has now been adopted internationally. We make our own sushi using a bamboo rolling mat cause it is expensive when it is so easy to make.

I wouldn't eat sushi either, though I'm not vegetarian. Perhaps your step-daughter thought it would be alright for you if it didn't contain meat.

No, she knows we don't eat fish. I think she didn't realize want she picked up, She had bought groceries before she came here. Her daughter loves sushi. It might have been for her. Daughter might have been surprised as we were.

I never knew you were a vegetarian! I used to be a vegetarian but I got very sick. I still don't like eating meat so I limit what I eat, but balance it enough that I'm mostly vegetarian with a couple of chicken or fish days. But I say no to sushi, as well. An old friend took me out for sushi once. She insisted I try it. I couldn't do it. And she made fun of me for a month. Needless to say, we're no longer friends. I could respect her choice to love sushi but she couldn't respect my choice to skip it. So I skip her now.

@RubyHawk I agree with that! Encouraging me to try something is fine. But to make fun of me if I don't like it is way too childish for me.

I used to eat meat but never raw. It's not nice for friends to push things on us that we don't like.

Mostly sushi is rice and vegetables and the seaweed. California rolls are rice, avocado, other things. There are many that contain no fish at all cooked or raw. We buy it or make it at home. One of the nicest meatless//fishless meals we have. Here, the ones with raw fish will have the piece of fish right on top so there is no wondering. My husband likes it. I don't mind it as the little piece of fish is seasoned/marinated. But I prefer all of mine to be cooked.
