I love seafood particularly fish, shrimp, lobster and crab yet I have zero interest in sushi or any cold fish including shrimp cocktail.  Although I admit a lobster/avocado roll sounds somewhat tempting.

I love shrimp cocktail my mom gets a shrimp cocktail platter for Christmas with a 100 medium shrimp and me and her are the only ones who eat it,I’d say I have about 70-80 of them before Christmas dinner.Its funny I don’t like avacado but on the lobster roll it’s a great combination.Fish the only one I can handle is haddock as it’s not to fishy but something like salmon is way to fishy.

I don’t eat any seafood, but why do people love eating sushi?

Does it make them feel retro, hip and cool?

Maybe, some, like me, just like it.

BTW, cold rice has a lower glycemic index.

I don’t eat any seafood. None whatsoever. I think all seafood is gross.

I think many people eat sushi to feel cool.

I think a lot of a person's taste in food comes from simply how you grow up and the food your culture eats. Hawaii is very influenced by the Japanese and because no matter where you live the ocean is not far away so you grow up eating a lot of seafood.

Can you explain the love for Spam in HI? I assume it has something to do with it being a substitute for pork that can be brought in cheaply but not sure.

I used to love shrimp cocktail but one bad batch back in 97 and I haven't been able to since.

I don't know. Maybe it was because of the military presence which was a staple and became so widely available and cheap. I don't touch the stuff. It was created generations ago when just filling your stomach and not nutrition mattered.

Sushi is delicious! And it's a very social experience.

Does it make hip?



It cool?

I think that is it SF. Seems to be a fad, and followers, follow along. Stuff's been a round since beginning of time for god's sake.
Todays IG BB's feel they invented it.  Odd behavior...

Was in Oasaka for a long period of time for business. That’s all I ate. A sushi chef there makes it his lifes’ effort to become a chef. Dining there is not like North America. It’s serious business. Sushi chefs are on  another level there and that applies to all types of gastronomy. By far there’s no cuisine better.

Agreed.  The first and only time I tried sushi I almost threw up.  All seafood is gross but I still eat tuna out of a can as a throwback to my bodybuilding roots. ;D

I remember when I was much younger eating so much tuna eventually I read about someone drinking it in water so I would dump a can in a couple glasses of water and pound it cause I couldn’t handle the taste then eventually I puked and never ate tuna any more.

Yeah, we were convinced to do dumb shit.  I remember watching Rocky and Hulk Hogan drinking raw eggs and I tried that and puked as well.  When MM2000 interviewed a bodybuilder (Samir Bannout?) he laughed about telling young bodybuilders his secret to success was eating canned dog food and thinking that they took his advice.  Asshole!
