    One of my absolute most favorite foods. Anytime I eat sushi I know I'm going well over on calories that day (and couldn't care less), because I'll eat sushi until I'm ready to explode.

    Haven't done this yet, but my dream sushi dinner = about 2.5 lbs. of salmon sashimi. OM NOM NOM NOM.

    I have only recently tried sushi and I'm 40 yrs old and I fell in love. I'm actually planning to have a cheat day for my birthday in a few weeks. Going to Tsunami for dinner, can't wait!

    I cannot stand it, luckily sushi joints have other food on the menu because my wife loves it.

    Love Sushi, my favorite salmon. I was surprised how sweet salmon is before it's cooked and it's not as chewy as tuna.

    You don't have to like raw fish to like sushi. I can think of several sushi preparations that have no fish at all, the word refers to the flavor of the rice, not the fish.

    Well, if it's not love, it's a very sensual, bordering on porn-y, hookup.

    Maguro nigiri: oh, so smooth, so tender, I love that! Unagi nigiri: ooh baby, yeah, satisfy me! Spider roll: I'm in the mood for something freaky!

    California roll is the missionary position of sushi. There's nothing *wrong* with it exactly, and it's better than no sushi at all, but you can do better!

    I think Lewis Grizzard, humor/cpolitical columnist for the Atlanta Journal Constitution put it best many years ago:

    We in the south have always had sushi.

    We call it bait.
    Amen, sir!

    Best way to get started is just go out to eat with a friend who loves sushi to be your sensei. Try everything your friend suggests, and anything you don't like they'll gladly eat. I advise ordering nigiri (finger-sized single bites) instead of rolls until you know what you like. Though everyone *will* make you order california roll, which is ... inoffensive.

    I'm kind of obsessed with it. I live in the Seattle area, so the supply of fresh fish is wonderful.
