Some choice bits

they interviewed the chef who invented california roll. He put the rice on the outside because his customers found seaweed too scary.

In reply to

I was reading about this earlier today, sushi in the States is assembled rice-side-out because back in the day, Americans would peel off the nori before eating because seaweed was too scary for them. Absurd.

Fucking lmao

The lack of spices in Japanese food suggests Japanese are the white people of Asia

          No no I agree with this take in the way that we’re already living in a cyberpunk hellscape where half of our food is synth-[insert food name here]. Like it’s not that horseradish is bad it’s fucked up that most Americans haven’t had real wasabi and have had horseradish painted green because it’s cheaper for the food suppliers
