Seriously? A "sushi budget"? We eat sushi a lot- once a week or more either in restaurant, take out or at local "foodie" grocery store- but it just rolls into the general "entertainment/ eating out budget" or the "grocery" budget.
Agreed. I really like sushi. They have it about once a week at work in the cafeteria. And I will get some from the grocery store about once every few weeks. Maybe a sushi restaurant once a month. But I have never thought about it as a separate budget. Just part of my food bills.
Sushi is not synonymous with "raw fish". It can consist of vegetables (kappa maki, oshinko maki), cooked fish (Philadelphia roll, unagi maki, California roll, etc.), egg (tamago nigri), even land meat (a "Kentucky Roll", spam musubi, although that's debatable whether it's real sushi or not). I saw at a restaurant in Tampa with fried chicken!). "Sushi", if I remember correctly, refers to the rice, not to the meat.
Hmmmm....I could have me some sushi right now...only if a place was open and I wasn't broke!
I'm happy to see that the majority had the same answer as I do--don't eat the stuff.
My next-door neighbor is the sushi chef at a popular nearby restaurant, too. My daughter's happy about that. I've tried it. I don't get the attraction. It's a little gaggy psychologically to begin with because you know you're eating something raw, but besides that, it just doesn't taste all that great that you'd want to run back and eat more of it or anything. Maybe it's because it didn't come out in the US until I was well into adulthood.

This is true, but when most people say they are going to have sushi, they are talking about eating raw tuna and eel and other nasty things that should have been left in the water.
