Nori itself is roasted seaweed, usually sold only as "sushi nori" in sheets outside of Japan. So ground nori are fine, almost powder-like flakes made from this.

Why is too much chocolate bad for you?

Chocolate candy has little to no cocoa in it. Therefore, any amount of chocolate is bad for you, though because we are fond of it, we like to think that a little is good. On the other hand, actual cocoa is a super food, and is the highest natural source of several minerals, and is high in vitamins. Even dark chocolate is processed to the point that it is not as good for you as doctors like to think.

Many additives in chocolate are not naturally edible, and are toxic. All processed foods are toxic to an extent.

What sushi fillings are there?

"Sushi is raw fish, sliced thin." -Steve8rox No, it isn't. It's a common misconception, but sushi is seasoned rice, not raw fish. It is often served with seafood which may be uncooked, but raw fish is called 'sashimi' Sushi rolls (make) can be filled with anything you like. Really. The little sushi blocks (nigiri) can be topped with anything. A butterfly'd cooked shrimp or a slice of smoked salmon are both popular. California rolls are 'make' made with avocado, cucumber and imitation crabmeat. I quite like smoked salmon and chargrilled red pepper. Also tuna marinated in soy, ginger, lime juice for a half hour, combined with spring onions is tasty. Go crazy, try anything! Try fusions: "Chinese style" duck with hoi sin sauce, spring onions and cucumber is good as is melon and prosciutto (Italian cured ham). I hope I have inspired you to try some out!

Why is there raw fish in sushi?

Sushi was invented thousands of years ago in Japan as a way to preserve raw, cleaned fish. It was pressed between rice and salt by a heavy stone for a few weeks, then covered with a lighter material until the fish fermented.

In the 18th century, a chef named Yohei Hanaya decided to skip the fermentation process and serve it on its own. Fresh sushi later became very popular.

Not all sushi has raw fish in it, like the California roll or the eel roll.

I personally LOVE sushi, with raw fish or not. It's what makes each roll unique. If you haven't already tried it, don't be scared!

Can vinegar turn rice to sushi rice?

If you put vinegar on rice this will cause an immediate chemical reaction which will blow up like a bomb and explode in your face. It will majorly burn your face and peal 3 whole layers of skin off, your skull with then be slightly visible. I am not saying don't try this but there is a 7/10 chance your head will blow off your shoulders and you will die. It is very dangerous but fun to do. Also if you try this please make sure you are not afraid of blood as it will look like a murder scene, and also have an ambulance on speed dial. If anyone tries it please let me know how they get off. Thanks and have fun.

Nori, a type of seaweed commonly used in sushi, is low in calories and high in nutrients, which can be beneficial for overall digestive health.

It's best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding dietary choices and acid reflux management.
