Yes there is a walmart, but only one actual grocery store, and it now stock frozen sushi.

Update: I shared this picture with my local gaming group, one of them went and picked up a tray.

He tossed it into the fridge and tried it this morning.

I had the first piece. It is supposed to be “Refrigerated Only” by the packaging, but honestly, with a fridge thaw, it tastes just fine. I’ve had plenty worse than that.

If I was not vegetarian I would give it a try. The closest place to get sushi to us is an hour drive.

    You can find it on sushi restaurant menus here in Japan, so that seems a rather pointless thing to gatekeep.

      You can buy blue colored Ramon in japan. You can get sushi with spam. What’s your point? Just because you can buy it in a store doesn’t mean much.

        What’s your thought on salmon sushi? It’s a pretty recent dish, introduced by Norwegian salmon farmers to Japanese sushi chefs in the 80’s. Clearly not traditional in the historic sense.

        Is this really the hill you want to die on? How do you think dishes are invented? People made them, others like it. Enough to get a name and reputation.

        If you’re still going to claim a California roll isn’t sushi, when nearly all of civilization agrees it is, you’re dumb.

          Ok, so you think my opinion is dumb. Well, i think yours is dumb. See how that works? Just because I’m disagreed with does not make my opinion anyones but mine. Clearly not all of civilization either considering at least one other person gave me even a single upvote. Only sith deal in absolutes.
