/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Godzilla roll that doesn't use cream cheese. It pains me so many places use CC for the God roll.

Doesn't sound terrible, but it still has no place on my burger.

Fascinating, never knew this. So it's basically the Godzilla Role here in the states? Japanese interpretation of what sells for 'murricans? I'll admit my dislike for the style has lessened.

Nearly everything Japanese is overrated by design. They are incredible marketers of their culture, even getting foreigners to use their language to describe things. Their food is no exception. They've lived on an island for 1000 years, of course their food is going to be bland.

Once again there is sushi thread on /ck/ and once again I feel that urge. That urge that has coarsed through my blood and the blood of my ancestors long passed. Above all other rolls, the King of rolls. The Godzilla Roll.
Perhaps you thought sushi could only have wonderful flavor and texture. That the beginning and the end of this journey through culture could only ever be context-less but you where wrong. The Godzilla roll shows the world what amazing food is. It is not only a filling meal, made with the best of ingredients and most dedicated of cooking styles. It is a story.

The story of the Godzilla roll is at first glance a simple one. A mere reference to the famous film franchise you think? Ah but how wrong you are, for the story this impressive and domineering sushi roll tells is one of power, of loss, and domination. For the story this roll tells to make sense we need context. I am sure you have all heard of the major events of WW2. How in an effort to end the conflict as soon as possible the American nation of the United states used its greatest weapon against the Japanese. In fact it had to use this weapon twice, and on civilian cities no less. The impact of this devastating attack ended the war much earlier then anticipated and left a cultural blow on the Japanese people deeper then any but them could understand. The following decades being shaped by that event and its implications.

With this in mind the story of Godzilla, the king of monsters is easy to understand. A film about the destructive power of nature and of the weapons we now wield as a species. All framed in front of the loss the Japanese suffered. So now, what of the sushi roll named after these events?

What we have here gentleman, is a sushi roll, the iconic Japanese dish (city), deep fried (destroyed) and sold to hungry Americans (innocent) in exchange for US dollars (irony). If this is not the height of poetic storytelling in cooking, im not sure what is.

Double order of this for lunch then bring the spicy tuna roll, shrimp avacado roll, and rainbow roll back with me for din din.

Fewer pleasures greater then the Godzilla roll anons. Literally paying some jap to deep fry his own culture for my american dollars, to commemorate the days when my fathers laid nuclear fire to his nation. Hard to compete with that. Not that its culturally insensitive or anything but since we're talking about sushi and culture.
