Yeah... yeah I would try it.

it's good smell

>>16679374
Sure I'd try it. I've noticed that often strong smelling/tasting foods are exaggerated.

>lightly fermented herring with roe
it's literally mild

>>16679572

It's fermented for months. It's not like herring at all.

>>16679374
I'm with Karl on this one. That fish simply looks rotten.

>>16679587
>months
years, actually

>>16679623
Decades, sometimes I heard.

>>16679711
Centuries, even.

>>16679374
>raw shit on a platter
Japanese ""food""

>>16679374
I'd try it but I'd by wary unless they put some pickled ginger on the side or something so I could cleanse my pallet if I didn't enjoy it.

Yes, but only because it is Japanese.

>>16679572
>lightly fermented
lol its like 3 years old

>>16679374
If its eaten in Japan then it shouldn't be dangeous. So why not?

>would you eat the fish /ck/?

>would you eat the fish /ck/?

>>16679969
That isn't raw, it's pickled.

>>16679572
>it's literally mild

>>16680122
thats not the original, is it?

>>16680153
I like that the ref got thicc.

>>16679374
I like how bongs wont eat fermented fish but they'll eat shit like this

>>16679374
I always cringe when I see a white guy hunched over awkwardly while trying to sit properly with asians

What I remember as chinese food growing up as a young kid in Hong Kong

>turtle/shark fin soup
>fried chicken feet
>pig uterus noodles
>fried rice with pork knuckle gristle
>unidentifed fish balls on a stick
>boiled dog meat
>one time, monkey brains

Americans have no idea how bad it really is. No one in china knows what the fuck beef and broccoli is or sweet and sour pork. Chinese food is disgusting. Literally the worst parts to eat of any animal. Makes sense because chinks are the race of humans closest to animals. They make disgusting noises when they eat, slurp everything, men in the streets lift their fucking wife beaters over their sweaty stomachs while laughing and chewing with their mouths full of food. Like what kind of idiot decided 2 sticks is the most practical way to eat grains of fucking rice. Starving Nigerians who eat grass have a better diet than the average chinese.

我记得中国菜在香港小的时候长大 >汤/鱼翅汤 >炸鸡脚 >皮格子宫面 >炒米与猪肉指关节 >在棍子上识别鱼丸 >烤狗肉 >一次,猴子的大脑 美国人不知道这到底有多糟糕。在中国没有人知道他妈的牛肉和花椰菜是什么, 或者甜酸猪肉。中国菜真恶心。从字面上讲, 这是任何动物吃的最差的部分。有道理, 因为缝隙是最接近动物的人类的种族。他们吃饭时发出恶心的噪音, 把所有东西都弄脏, 街上的男人把妻子打手举过满头大汗的肚子, 一边笑着, 嘴里满是食物。就像什么样的白痴决定 2 根棍子是最实用的方式吃他妈的米粒。吃草的尼日利亚人比一般中国人的饮食好。

I once ordered this sushi while in Japan, and it was honest to god one of the tastiest things I've ever eaten. I liked it so much I decided to find the chef and say my thanks, but when I asked the waiter they were being all dodgy like, "oh he's really busy, he doesn't really have the time and all that you know".
So I asked if I could use the toilet and they direct me to it, and as I'm on my way I pass the door to the kitchen, and start hearing all these weird noises. And I'm like, I know japanese is mental but it's not that weird sounding, so I poke my head through and see banana peels everywhere which is odd since there's no banana in sushi. Suddenly, this short person comes out of nowhere and starts making sushi like mad. I walk up to him and say "you've done a proper job here this", but it turns out, was a lil monkey fella.

>>16679374
It's easier to eat this way, but I still don't like it.
I think about 70% of Japanese people don't like it.
KUSAYA only has a bad smell, but the taste is delicious.

>>16679374
Yes, I eat the fish.

>>16679374

>>16680994
lol

>>16680994
why is japanese cuisine so hilariously bad?
the main staple dish of nipponland is sushi which is literally just fish on rice
their curry is just watered soup
ramen is just inferior version of authentic Chinese noodles
even instant noodles is taiwanese (Chinese) and not from japan

why could the nips not make a satisfactory cuisine?

>>16680994
Lmao

>>16679589
the roe was basically calculated to look like some kind of filth discharge

>>16682167
kek is this like a music video or something?

>>16682962
its not roe its literally the fermented flesh of the fish

>>16679587
horrific

>>16684362
The orange stuff in that pic is very obviously roe

>>16684892
it genuinely is not, its flesh that has been consumed and excreted like in casu mazu. you think fish have a giant roe sack that extends along the entire length of their body? in a giant cavity running straight through their muscle?

>>16684892
you think this ENTIRE fish is just roe? its flesh i am telling you lol, you dont know what you are talking about.

>>16684892
how about this one? you think this fish was 5% fish and 95% roe? in the future try not talking about things you dont know about

>>16684892
how about this one genius? show me a fish where 90% of its insides is just roe sack. they completely clean and gut the fish before fermentation, there is never any roe. fucking idiot.

>>16685232
not the anon you were replying to but this >>16684362 is obviously roe
you can even see the sac lining in the middle and a distinct difference in color between the actual flesh and the roe
I'd say take your own advice on this one and avoid talking out of your ass and sperging out over fish, it's borderline spam
thanks

>>16685351
its 100% not roe lmao i have actually eaten this before you faggot

>>16684362

>>16685855
lol the stuff I thought was roe is rice stuffed into the fish's body cavity that turns orange during fermentation

>>16685898
It's the difference between male and female.
Females are stuffed with rice so as not to destroy the eggs.
The female is more expensive.

>>16684362
turns out it's rice

>>16685659
>i have actually eaten this before
You say that like you think it means something.
I've driven a car before but that doesn't make me a mechanic.

In conclusion
funa zushi is a traditional food that only a few Japanese people like to eat.
And it costs $40-$200 per fish.

Fuck off Ricky.

Ive never had narezushi but I’ve tried funazushi (only difference is type of fish). Funny enough, my Japanese fiancée hasn’t, and wasn’t willing to when I did.
It actually wasn’t bad at all. The smell wasn’t nearly as horrific as YouTubers act like it is on their videos.
It does have sort of a pronounced aged/fermented sharpness along with the fishy taste.
I’d imagine that if you really like fish, and you really like strong blue cheese or Stilton, you’d probably like (or at least not gag on) funazushi.

>>16690654
narezushi is made all over Japan.
Among them, funazushi has a peculiar smell because it is a freshwater fish.
The strength of the smell varies depending on how the fish is processed.
I think what you have tried is funazushi, which has less odor.

About narezushi in Japan
For example, the salmon narezushi produced in Hokkaido is good for beginners.
Personally, I like Heshiko from Fukui Prefecture.

>>16690747
>I think what you have tried is funazushi
I did mention that I haven’t tried narezushi and did indeed have funazushi.
I would like to try the former though; do you know of any good places in/around Osaka that make it?
