Sushi anyone?

Hey all!!! I hope your day is going well... Has anybody tried Sushi yet? I love california rolls prior to surgery and am now craving them....

Haven't tried it yet, as my doc tells us to avoid rice for at least 6 months, but once I'm back on real food, you can be sure I'll visit my fav place for Sashimi and Miso soup!!! I have been craving fish for a few days now. Inky

I did take my wife out for Japanese last night. She ate some sushi, although I don't care for the stuff. The hibachi grilled shrimp I had hit the spot, and agreed with my pouch very nicely though. All I can say is "try it". On a food like this everyone's mileage will vary. DD

My doc and my NUT cleared me for sushi (one of my favorites) as of soft food stage. They did tell me to make sure to go light on the rice. I am a fan of sashimi and nigri (sp?), but I had a chance to have some recently and passed because I realized how much I would have to chew it. Sushi isn't really something that I chewed and chewed. California rolls should be better since the crab is cooked, but I'd still be careful of the rice. Enjoy! Let us fellow sushi lovers know how it goes.....

Hi Toni, Funny you should mention this! I had sashimi both Saturday and Sunday this weekend! It was delicious and went down great-no pouch trouble at all. I did try a bite of a sushi roll though, and it didn't agree with me. It's really hard to chew the rice and nori wrapper enough to make it work. Good luck, Lisa
