For all lovers of Japanese food (hehe)

Thank goodness I never touch the stuff.

Nor do I.

Apparently, all types of parasites can be found in raw tuna - the most prized fish for sushi.

When I was a teenager I remember the Japanese government warning people about the danger of mercury poisoning in raw fish at the time and telling us how many pieces of sushi we should eat in a week.

Why would you bother?

Because sushi/sashimi tastes so good.

Like a woman’s cunt I’ve been told

frequent, I don't know about a woman's cunt but sashimi and sushi have a very mild flavor and little if any odor. Often it is spiced up a bit with soy sauce or washibi.

I'll admit that this is well outside my areas of expertise!

Perhaps it is for this reason that Ian at the Cafe Royale would scream: "FISH!!!! FISH!!!!" if a woman stepped over the threshold! I wonder what his reaction would have been if a mermaid had slithered over the threshold one evening?

Ah, the good old days. I feel a song coming on..."If you knew Sushi, like I knew Sushi, Oh, Oh, Oh what a girl...."
