I'm not sure if it was Will Rogers, Mark Twain or someone else who said "Man is the only animal that blushes...or needs to." Do you blush easily?

• Is there sushi that is cooked? If so, I'd like it. But the raw stuff...I have tasted it and it was the texture that seemed weird to me. But I've had ceviche which is raw fish in lime juice and the lime juice "cooks" the fish so the texture is fine. And a friend ordered "raw" Ahi tuna once and I tried it and liked it a lot. So maybe the bite of sushi I had wasn't really a good example. :)

• I love ahi sashimi (which is what you had, I think). And you could learn to "like" sushi, RosieG - enough wasabi (that blisteringly-hot, green horseradish) and soy sauce will wipe out the taste of everything else, LOL.
  You could always walk on the wild side >> miso soup and an order of California Rolls.

Have never tasted it...and the California Rolls..are they the ones with rice, avocado and some kind of cooked shellfish? If so, I've eaten and enjoyed those. Thanks for the link...:) I do like wasabi :)

  RosieG, there are a couple kinds of sushi you can get that don't have raw fish in them. My favorite is unagi (cooked eel) but that isn't everyone's cup of tea either. May I suggest tamago (sweet egg), ebi or ama ebi (shrimp), and inari (rice in a tofu pouch). You can also find several rolls that are vegetarian or have cooked ingredients. I had a sweet potato roll that was excellent. You can also ask your server for suggestions.
  Good miso soup isn't too salty.
  Ok. It's after 3am and I really need some sushi now, dammit! :(

• Hi, Darkling...thanks for the suggestions. Will probably wait on the unagi...how is the texture of it? Is it chewy? But the others, especially the ebi (love shrimp) sound good. You're right...when in doubt, just ask! :)

• Each type of sushi (the uncooked variety) has a different texture. If you want it tougher, for instance, ask for octopus. If you want it buttery feeling, yellowtail.
  California rolls do not have raw fish. There are other types of sushi that do not... I would think that you could ask. As Darkling said, there are many vegetarian rolls.
  What makes sushi is the rice, not what is put on it. It is popular knowledge that sushi is ALWAYS raw fish and we know that popular knowledge is not always accurate.
  You can always get a sampler plate, Rosie. Most sushi houses have many different sampler plates, including vegetarian.
  Miso soup is made from tofu, seaweed, green onions, and spices. It is tasty.
  Tamago is always lovely and is but sweet egg. They cook it in a sweetened oil, folding it repeatedly. It is quite the job when done right.
  Regarding the fuss, KeyshaJ and I picked up a troll who was insulting me to upset KeyshaJ, then decided to clone me. The troll was dealt with.

• To me, sushi is not complete without ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce to dip it in.
  If you like raw fish, fish eggs, and various other things like I do, find a recommended sushi house because if the fish is not fresh, you face contamination. However, I have eaten at dozens of sushi houses and I have never had a problem. But then I am careful to look up the references of a sushi house I am to patronize. I just moved to Michigan and I know nobody here who likes sushi. A look on the net, a bit of reading reviews, and I found a lovely sushi house.
  Give it a try... I highly recommend it!

• RosieG, unagi is about the same firmness as cooked fish but with a higher fat content that gives it a little more chew and less flake. It isn't rubbery at all. I just remembered that kani is another one you might like. It's cooked fish that is formed into a stick and flavored like crab. It's similar to the fake crab you can buy in the grocery store.
  Arisztid, if you want to find the freshest fish in town, get sashimi your first visit. Without the vinegared rice to help cover up any degradation in quality, you really find out which places have the good stuff.
