I.... I had a bad experience with wasabi once. The smell or taste of it makes me gag now.

 

[videogamer]

I could really picture that happening, fortunately not yet for me

 

[aoi tsuki]

i love wasabi, but i have a feeling i've never had "real" wasabi, even at sushi restaurants.

 

[jiggle]

I do.
Love it with sushi/sashimi, in soup, and all those wasabi flavored dry snacks. I was just eating fried wasabi seaweed just a few moments ago. Good stuff. :-9
Never had the McDonald dip before though.

You snorted wasabi right after watching Jackass: The Movie, didn't you?

DIDN'T YOU?

 

[aoi tsuki]

Fried wasabi seaweed?! What brand? i'd love to try some.

It's surprisingly strong for what I expected.

 

[RiZ III]

only when it comes with ryoko hirosue

 

[way more]

That picture makes me ill. That McDonalds sauce looks good. Mmm.

I haven't seen that movie. I mistook a blob of wasabi for mashed avocado and put the whole lot on a single sushi roll and put the whole thing in my mouth. I didn’t spit it out because I was eating in a public food court with people all around me, so I forced myself to swallow it all... my face exploded. In retrospect, I should’ve spat it out.

You can all laugh at my stupidity now.

The one I have is call "Local Favorites". Costco, Hawaii, was selling them in these giant buckets. I wish the costcos here have it

 

[Poody]

wasabi is good! clears my nose when i'm sick and taste good on turkey day

 

[speedpop]

Heh my girlfriend is a wasabi nut. Soy sauce with TONS of wasabi is her way of life.

I blame it on her being Singaporean and taking her hot levels to the extreme (i.e. wasabi, chilli and curry). Slowly I am getting there and I do enjoy some wasabi as it does add quite a nice "spice" to sushi.

Wasabi is an awesome flavoring. Even better than its English compatriot, horseradish.

I know it is probably on a par with combining rice and ketchup to some of the purists on this board, but I really like dissolving some wasabi in soy to make a spicy salty dip for sushi and the like.

+1 Wasabi

I thought soy sauce + wasabi was a popular thing to do? At least my friends and I all do it.

 

[duderon]

I like both wasabi and horseradish. Probably horseradish more though since it's hard to find fresh wasabi in the states. I feel sorry for the dude that ate a whole glob of it though :lol What the hell happened? Did you pass out?

That's how i do it. It's easier to get the effects of the wasabi when mixed since you're less likely to swallow a portion of it without it hitting the roof of your mouth. But i generally only eat every three pieces with wasabi since it overwelms the taste of the sushi/sashimi.

It is normal to mix a little wasabi in with soy sauce when eating sushi, many Japanese eat it this way.

Like I said, my face exploded. Doctors were only able to do so much with reconstructive surgery, so now I don't go outside where other people can see me. ;P

Funny, I'd always read and been told that it was not the done thing at sashimi/sushi restaurants.

Not that it stopped me from doing so.

Doesn't stop most Japanese apparently either hehe...I live in Japan, I see people do it all the time.

 

[MetatronM]

I HATE wasabi.

But that's primarily because I find horseradish, in general, to be the most objectional flavor on the planet.

I can't stand it. It's not that I simply don't like the taste. It's that the taste is so bad that it makes me feel ill just having it in my mouth.

 

[WasabiKing]

Love it, and in fact, that's how I earned my nickname. I don't use soy sauce or any chasers, just wasabi on the sushi and I'm a happy man.
