		<description><![CDATA[I just wanted to pass along a little information I received recently. Apparently six people became ill with Vibrio parahaemolytics from raw oyster consumption in the source state, Washington. The raw oysters were distributed to 11 other states and five countries (Canada, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand). No other illnesses have been reported. Guidance [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve heard people refer to sushi as &#8220;cat food&#8221; before and make fun of it in many other ways, but what many folks don&#8217;t know is that Bluefin Tuna, now suffering from incredible demand, was, until the 1970&#8242;s, a &#8216;sport&#8217; fish sold to companies for cat food or thrown away. Its fatty belly meat, known [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always been a fan of sake. In fact, I prefer it to wine, which as a westerner obviously has to do with a taste acquired from my frequent sushi dining. When I order sushi I order sake. Some traditionalists say that one should not drink sake while eating sushi, &#8220;rice and rice,&#8221; but I [...]]]></description>

But one issue I thought I&#8217;d touch on is sushi and dating. I&#8217;ve been eating sushi for a long time.

While the company I got mine from isn&#8217;t around anymore (online at least) I have found another place for them. Since you are on the west coast anyway, Hayato, Catalina Offshore Products has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[All sushi in the US is flash frozen at some point in transit before it gets to your table, which I believe is a legal requirement. This is done to kill any dangerous parasites (such as Anisakis simplex) in the fish and protect consumers. I understand the policy, and won&#8217;t argue the safety point, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll eat sushi any way and chance I get. I end up eating a lot of take out simply because it&#8217;s easy and with two young children, it&#8217;s not always fun when the edamame starts getting tossed around. But I really like the experience of being in the restaurant, drinking my sake, listening to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Welcome to my sushi blog, and, yes, I am aware of the negative connotation of the word &#8216;otaku&#8217; in Japanese, however being a gaijin I thought I&#8217;d throw caution to the wind and use the word anyway. Westerners seem to think they have adopted the word for themselves so at least I&#8217;m not the first [...]]]></description>
