Sashimi

Hi Guys, I had sashimi in a Japanese restaurant for lunch yesterday.  It was great.  Sashimi is one of the foods that I really enjoyed pre-op and I wondered how I would tolerate it post-op.  Well I'm happy to report that I had no problems at all. As an added benefit, I can now get out of a Japanese restaurant with a "reasonable" bill, as I can not consume that much volume.  And, I am not drinking any alcohol. If anyone was thinking about sashimi but was afraid--go for it!

I'm with Jim. It's great, safe and I eat it three times or more a week.

Righty-oh, Jim! Sashimi's mighty fine for me. Packed with protein, great flavor, wonderful texture, excellent variety. I don't eat it as often as Dave-san, but I'm there at least once a week. And for "dessert" I'll usually have a California hand roll. The little bit of rice fills me up and the avocado is a nice treat. If any of you other guys aren't sure, give it a try. It's great stuff.  Joe

I love all manner of sushi/sashimi. I havent had any since surgery, but I really am starting to feel the pull. And to get out of a sushi bar for less than $40 a person.. on the low side? Priceless.

Just had a 3" X 6" X 1/2" slab of raw tuna that my wife got from the grocery store for about $4. Sliced it up and ate the whole thing.

Jim, I also love  sashimi and eat it every chance I get.  Have you ever tried the edimame (soy beans) they serve as an appetizer?  They are awesome, and have good protein in them (although Chris warns us that it may produces estrogen.)  Give them a try. Scott

Sashimi has been my favorite meal since the surgery.  I have an albacore sashimi, a spicy tuna hand roll without rice and some edamame and I am about as happy as a guy can be.
