Sushi.....minus the fish and meat



Would it come to you as a surprise if I said I like sushi....even though I'm vegetarian?!

Well, I do.

I like going to the kaiten-sushi, the restaurant that has plates of sushi coming around to you on a conveyer belt and you can just pick whatever you want to eat. It's quite entertaining. When people imagine sushi, it's usually raw fish on rice. But I don't do fish....in matter of fact, I don't like to do anything that once used to move. So what do I eat, you say?!

There are eggs, corn-mayo, sour plum rolls, natto, and avocado-shrimp(I yank the shrimp out!). There are some others, but I can't remember what. Most people have a hard time narrowing down what to fill their stomachs with, since they have like 30 different kinds of sushi they have to choose from. Me, I have no problem at all! There are probably less than 10 for me to choose from, and typically I only eat the same 5 kinds, so I don't have to constantly keep one eye out on the sushi passing by, and one eye on the sushi I'm eating.

Another odditiy of mine is that I CANNOT under NO circumstances, eat WASABI. If I have to, I'm willing to wash down seafood or meat, but not wasabi. That stuff just makes me wanna gag. So when I go eat sushi, I always order the kiddie plates that have no wasabi =).

PS. Shino, I know you're laughing at me! My version of "sushi" is flat-out not even considered "sushi" in your book, huh?!
