It has protein, but is it good for you!!

SUSHI, I know has protein, but is it a good source of protein. What are the negatives of SUSHI.... thanks

Sushi is fish, and fish is good, so I'd say yes. It's just raw fish.

[Billy Boy]

Petes your man for this I reckon but sushi is a good source of protein just beware it is raw that means it can contain more bacteria than cooked fish.Make sure it is fresh

Sashimi is actually a better choice if your are watching your wieght. Sushi is a slice of raw fish on top of a small bed of white rice (sometimes wrapped in seaweed). Salmon, fatty tuna and mackerel also offer a good source of EFA's. But in answer to your question, yes, seafood is a great source of protein, just watch your rice consumption.

PS There are other concerns that I'm sure could be adressed such as biological organisms entering into your body, ect,ect but being raw is enough for me!

I hit it raw. I eat it raw. Are we still talking about sushi?

I love sashimi. Everytime i go to a chinese restaurant, i order like 3-4 plates full of the stuff...all protein and healthy fats..no unwanted carbs so late in the day.

It is funny that this post should appear. In my quest to broarden my horizions with various foods, this topic was brought up in the office at work. There is a friend of mine who claims to love sushi. Now to tell the truth I don't think that I could stomach the stuff but I did agree to go with him and a group of other friends to check this out.(Just for the sake of trying somthing new mine you!) Anyway, we have not gone out to lunch to try this yet but hey, I do love oysters and they are raw. I'll let you know how it turns out if we ever make that lunch trip.

Keep in mind sushi is not necessarily made of raw fish. In fact I think most types use cooked fish or shrimp. I never had the guts to try it (because I thought it was raw fish) until 2 years ago and now I eat it often. Luckily our grocery stores here have sushi chefs all day long!
Philly rolls and playboy rolls are pretty universal and are always awesome.

Cold cooked rice dressed with vinegar that is shaped into bite-sized pieces and topped with raw or cooked fish, or formed into a roll with fish, egg, or vegetables and wrapped in seaweed

Pardon my french (mes francais) but I FUCKIN LOVE SUSHI!!! NO SHIT!!! I could eat it all night and all day. I'm serious, it's nothing for me to spend $50-70 on a feast of sushi (sashimi).
