Title: Japan adapts to tuna shortage
Post by: Foxy Brown on June 27, 2007, 03:17:46 AM
Sushi made with deer meat, anyone? How about a slice of raw horse on that rice?

These are some of the most extreme alternatives being considered by Japanese chefs as shortages of tuna threaten to remove it from Japan’s sushi menus — something as unthinkable here as baseball without hot dogs or Texas without barbecue.

The popularity of Sushi and sashimi in US and others.  We will probably eat Big Tuna into extinction then.

This explains why there was no tuna in the mix when I had sashimi this weekend.

Pity, but I'm open to new ingredients.
