@trinsec yea but any limit just doesnt sit right with me.. all you can eat is a sacred tradition, a contract between chef and patron. A man should be allowed to dream of mountains of food and beating the unbeleivable odds stacked against him to eat more than 50$ worth of fish in one sitting... without all you can eat, adding limits, is like the end of dreams!

@trinsec 5 rounds at 4 per round is pretty generous and I can eat a lot of sushi and I dont think I've ever passed 5 rounds.. but usually they dont limit it like that so im a little irked by the limit, even if you'd never hit it.

@hypolite As I stated before these are technologies that are on the horizon and will likely become widely used in the near future... so yea, its counter to your case in the sense that right now we still use books, so things are still getting preserved that way. By the time books become extinct other methods of long-term data preservation will almost certainly be on the scene, making your point moot.

@trinsec its basically all you can eat with fat-man protection :)

@trinsec You wont regret it.. its best if you go to a place you can sit at the sushi bar and see all the options.

@trinsec its very lightly spiced.. less than those packets really.. just a little bit of zing.. im so tolerant of spice i cant even detect any spice levels, its just flavor.

@mur2501

The second you said "indianize sushi" was the first time I had ever considered banning you from our server ;)

@trinsec

@trinsec the best sushi has a mix of everything, including some raw fish.. if you want some flavor there are raw fish sushis that have sauces in them.. for example spicy tuna is raw tuna and has a spicy sauce added and certainly has some flavor.

@hypolite well depends on just how next-gen you want to get.One I remember reading about a while back that had an almost infinite life was bits basically burned into crystals using lasers. But I also saw some dvd-like solutions that claimed would last hundreds of years, not sure if they ever wound up hitting the market.

I havent looked into the topic in some time but I know there were viable solutions on the horizon and some may have even become consumer ready I'm not sure.

@bonifartius I saw a man make a woman happy once, so I know for a fact anything is possible.

@trinsec lol you ate a cube of raw salmon, and thought that was all sushi had to offer, lol :) man you havent begun to see what sushi is...

@trinsec Here is a picture of a pretty traditional dragon roll. You can see the tempura shrimp in the middle, avacado on top and some fish roe as well.

@trinsec tempura itself isnt sushi, but sushi can include tempura. Sushi is a very general term that refers to almost any meal that is accompanied by vinegared rice (the special sushi rice). Then the various styles each have their own name.

In the attached image it shows all the subtypes of sushi, except for the sashimi, that isnt not considered sushi but often served along side sushi, all the others are types of sushi... Thats why youll often hear sushi places say "we serve sushi and sashimi"

So yea sushi can be just vegies and no fish, cooked grilled fish like eel, raw fish like the salmon and many types of roles, or even be made with tempura, for example a "Dragon roll" is shrimp tempura along with the rice and other ingredients.

@trinsec I mean a lot of people do like salmon and tuna.. but as you said its not much on the flavor really.. I guess they thought no flavor was the safe choice.

I do like a nice plain salmon sashimi, dont get me wrong, but its the least exciting of the options for sure.

Also dont forget sushi includes a ton of cooked and tempura items too, the variety is enourmous. Eel is always cooked for example but its still sushi.

@bonifartius it is a good deal harder than alot of things.. but im sure anthropologists will figure it out, might take them a few years, but they will get it.

@mur2501

A life without sushi is not a life worth living IMO.. its so satisfying, filling, and so much variety its a wonderful expiernce.. go to a proper sushi place, preferably all you can eat, and go to town.. keep in mind not all sushi is raw either.

@trinsec

@trinsec Well im not sure what "the point" would be, but one main selling point is omega oils break down quickly in heat, so sushi is considerably healthier in that regard.

Also soy sauce can be quite good once you try the various varieties.. high end soy sauce is amazing...

Finally I find the best sushi fishes are the inverse of the best cooking fishes.. like tuna and salmon are very common sushi fishes, but also the least interesting of the bunch IMO.. The best sushi fishes are your mackerel, and eel, and octopus, the sort of stuff that isnt considered top of the line for cooking but has some strong flavors going on.

Then your forgetting the whole line of sushis that arent just plain rice and fish, if you like something less plain then there are hundreds of types of rolls that have all sorts of ingredients mixed in to compliment the flavor, and can even include sauces.

Sounds like all you did was eat the most boring sushi options and called it a day :)

@bonifartius while I certainly agree jpeg would be tricky to reconstruct from scratch I feel like a future civilization that is as advanced as us or more could crack it. I've seen far more difficult things reversed engineered before.

@trinsec Everyone eats sushi wish soy sauce really, they are kinda made for it... that said id be curious to see what varities you tried, the specalty rolls are what you want if you want flavor, something more than fish and rice
