as a real man, i don't eat that girly shit.
Actually Sushi was first developed in Japan as food for poor workers on boatdocks because it was cheap. Wasabi and ginger is/was used to kill any bacteria.
Much the same way sub sandwhiches were developed in the us for guys working on submarines in a port in Baltimore. Bosses went to neighborhood delis and for cheap lunchmeats and put it on buns for the workers.
Not exactly girlie foods.
Give me a kitchen full of japanese rice, nori, rice wine vinegar, sugar, eggroll wrappers, wasabi, japanese mayo, eel sauce, siracha, soy sauce, yellowtail, tuna, salmon & crab... Along with a deep fryer and a toaster oven, & ill shit all day 6 months straight before i crave a rare burger or pizza.
