Sushi cravings... You feel me bro?

Options
I honestly think I am addicted to sushi. It sounds terribly upper class, but out here in Aus you can get awesome, cheap sushi everywhere.
I actually crave it. Crispy soft shell crab, brown rice hand rolls are like crack to me.

I read in an article that it is the perfect balance of sweet, savoury, umami; which is why your body can almost get addicted to it.

Anyone else getting sushi madness?

ah man.... it's lunch time.... Sushi'o'clock

    I don't know what it is about sushi, but even though I've never gotten great sushi I crave it every once in a while. It's so weird. I'll order it, and it'll be good at first, then okay, then by the end I've sworn off sushi forever, but then I'll crave it like crazy a week later. I don't understand it. It's the same thing with Indian food too. (I live in an area that doesn't have stellar places for either type, which doesn't help.)

    I'm really lucky living in Melbourne, Australia. A lot of fresh seafood and sushi places on every corner. I just need to convince my boyfriend to like it now so we can go out for Japanese more often!

    I'm not a huge sushi fan. But funnily enough I had a huge craving for suchi once. That was very odd for me. Anyway forced my husband for us to have sushi one day. The craving diminished. And a couple of days later found out that I was preggo. Weirdly, I didn't crave anything again throughout the pregnancy.

    Not really relevant but just reminded me of it.

    Sushi (even better yet, sashimi) is one of my favorite foods. We eat it at least once a week, but I'd probably eat it every day if given the chance!

    I live in the middle of the Canadian prairies, so I doubt I've ever had truly good sushi, but I still love it so much and crave it like crazy at least once a week!

    Sometimes I do, but my favorite sushi is salmon, and I found that just having some smoked salmon totally satisfies my craving.

    I live in a land-locked city most of the time, but when I go to the coast? Sushi heaven! I could eat salmon all day long...
