I'm a Swede living in Sweden. One time I saw someone in the store looking in the canned-fish section, and they looked at a sign about special offer on surströmming. The person put a lot of surströmming cans in the shopping basket. I'm not sure if the person knew what surströmming is, it was in a store close to where a lot of exchange student lives, and this person looked like they may have been from East Asia, so I really hope that they were Swedish.
My favorite sushi fact is that salmon sushi was introduced to Japan from Norway. Norway was trying to increase the amount of salmon it sold to Japan, so they had to convince the Japanese public that salmon could be eaten raw (it was usually eaten cooked), and it's become one of the more popular fishes for sushi.
I didn’t know that, but I have a counter fact. Because salmon sushi was introduced to Japan relatively recently, older people don’t generally eat it so much. As a result, preferring salmon to say… tuna, is sometimes seen as childish. Speaking personally, when I was invited to a Michelin star sushi restaurant, my wife (Japanese) asked me not to embarrass myself by ordering salmon.
@@MrSeanomon old people don't eat salmon raw because japanese salmon have a huge chance of parasites in them as they live in river and streams as well as the sea (I doubt they care if it's from the altantic sea or not), tuna is fine as it lives in the sea throughout all it's life but japanese salmon don't as it can traverse between both eco-systems. It's understandable for them to not eat raw salmon as they were probably taught not to eat fish raw that got caught in the river.
@comradetiedanski6038 yeah all salmon can get those parasites. Fun fact, most of the salmon in the world has them! But usually they are already dead or killed in the process of cooking. Which. Obviously doesnt happen with sushi. So dont buy "fishy" sushi or you might have a friend or two burrowing in your guts and feeding on your intestines!
...This should be obvious but this is the first time I've ever actively thought about the fact that there are no salmon in Japan. And that most of their seafood is saltwater fish, almost exclusively.
Actually there are, the problem was that in bodies of water near Japan, raw salmon contained parasites, which is why they refrained from eating raw salmon.
Or add the fact that Canada brought sushi over to North America as a Chef named Tojo came from Osaka to Vancouver were he made the bc roll and the Tojo roll (which was culturally appropriate by the Americans and they changed the name to California roll even though it was from Canada ) so anyways he was the first person to put rice on the outside and is almost single handily responsibility for sushi being popular in North America

It's called BURO (or burong kanin, buro or binuro means fermenting/pickling) Yes, you read it right- not only the fish in it, but also the rice!

The original sushi you were describing in the beginning is still made in Japan but is more rare to find. It is called funazushi and if somebody offers you to come eat it, you have to. (It's somewhat sacred)
I am from the very prefecture where still makes Funa-zushi (鮒寿司 the first preserved fish in fermented rice mentioned here). My grandmother used to buy a barrel every year to give some to each family members. You scrape the rice to discard (though my late Grandpa liked to eat some), slice the fish. The smelly part is true, it is a part of it. You grow with it, you get to use to it. Many Japanese don't like it, the smell and the taste, but some who had never had it till later in their lives, like my American husband, come to love it. Nowadays Funa-zushi has become very expensive. I miss it (Especially its eggs).
So I’d like to think I’m pretty open to trying different foods, however I have never had anything like that before. Is there anyway you could describe the taste to me in a way I could understand?
My foreign exchange friends from Japan LOVED cream cheese in sushi and said theyd start doing it at home even after they get back. I studied there, and Sushiro(a conveyer belt sushi chain) was putting melty cheese over salmon and stuff too. The future is now 😂
Sushi has been heavily westernized and changed as a whole since the 1970s by almost one man: Hidekazu Tojo. He invented the california roll as well as the art of rolling sushi with the rice on the outside, now seen literally everywhere. Hidekazu Tojo has been named the ambassador to Japanese cuisine by the Japanese government and resides here in Vancouver. He has a world-famous restaurant on Broadway street called Tojo's and is the chef celebrities call on when they're in Vancouver and feel like some top-tier Japanese food. If you don't believe the shadow of influence he casts over sushi, please feel free to google the man himself. He's a legend.
I'm an American as well and there are some sushi here with cream cheese, though it's mostly in supermarkets. I normally don't like cheese except on Pizza or mexican food, though I dislike cream cheese, I think cream or any type of cheese on sushi is gross, an abomination and it doesn't mix well, to me it spoils the whole fun of sushi.
It's actually not bad. Try it before you judge. I used to "hate" dipping my pizza in ranch. I love trying new foods, even if they sound gross. But ranch on pizza sounded to me like burning the Italian flag and then spitting ranch on it. Regardless at some point I tried it and now I love it. Especially with hot sauce.
I saw this in my recommended, and for a brief, glorious three seconds I was hit with the hope that you had posted again, that I would not, in fact, not see you again for three years. Alas, it is an older video, and my hope was destroyed like that one baby in the stomach of Tartare.
Idea: Sam just makes video after video rating common foods. Like his slander on Swiss Miss (Instant Piss) but on all kinds of foods from all kinds of countries. I would love to see his slander on Spanekopita (a Greek side dish which is basically just spinach in between layers of crinkly pastry but the pastry isn’t sweet it’s a savory dish)
Major Correction: the Meiji restoration was not an "imperial takeover" it was a revolution which saw His Majesty, Emperor Meiji restored to full power and the abolition of the samurai class. It brought about rapid industrialization and turned japan into a major world power
I've heard that early sushi was comparable to surströmming, which makes sense since both involve light pickling and fermentation. (Surströmming is even Swedish for "sour (fresh water) herring", so the naming checks out.)
***** there wasnt a year 0. Dont ask me why, there just wasnt. it was 1 BC and then the 1 AD. So your explanation of why the ninth century started in 800 is wrong. The ninth century started in first day of the the year 801 AD.
Dante Reynoso You're right about no year zero, because AD wasn't invented until >100AD. However, each century starts in he 00s. That's why January 1st 2000 is part of the 21st century.
If I remember correctly, when western travelers first came over to Japan, the style of sushi was still just a slice of fish on a rice ball. But, having to actually look at the raw fish grossed out the Westerners, and this eventually lead to the roll-style sushi to make it more appealing. Of course, I only heard this on some "How It's Made" show a few years back, so it could be wrong
Yo Momz probably a lot more “Japanese” if that makes sense. More seafood and pickled Asian veggies and less murican foods and gimmicks like “firecracker roll”. More sashimi (uncooked meat).

Many Japanese don't like it, the smell and the taste, but some who had never had it till later in their lives, like my American husband, come to love it. Nowadays Funa-zushi has become very expensive. I miss it (Especially its eggs).
So I’d like to think I’m pretty open to trying different foods, however I have never had anything like that before. Is there anyway you could describe the taste to me in a way I could understand?
@@all_out_tripp7220 The closest thing would be a very smelly cheese with not-so-soft texture. And, of course, it is fishy.
He'll come back were just not ready yet
That last line really hit home
wile ‘ same. You a weird smelly kid too?
I lost it when I read “fishy delishy” 😂😂😂
3:12 theres still hope for me :D
No there isn't
@@crockstonyt Dude why you gotta do him like that?
I believe in you 💙
You're already good
Maybe
I'm gonna kiss you
My foreign exchange friends from Japan LOVED cream cheese in sushi and said theyd start doing it at home even after they get back. I studied there, and Sushiro(a conveyer belt sushi chain) was putting melty cheese over salmon and stuff too. The future is now 😂
Sushi has been heavily westernized and changed as a whole since the 1970s by almost one man: Hidekazu Tojo. He invented the california roll as well as the art of rolling sushi with the rice on the outside, now seen literally everywhere.
Hidekazu Tojo has been named the ambassador to Japanese cuisine by the Japanese government and resides here in Vancouver. He has a world-famous restaurant on Broadway street called Tojo's and is the chef celebrities call on when they're in Vancouver and feel like some top-tier Japanese food.
If you don't believe the shadow of influence he casts over sushi, please feel free to google the man himself. He's a legend.
Who cares
I was looking through the comments hoping someone mentioned Tojo! I go to his restaurant every year for the Omakase, it’s absolutely amazing
I like what you have going on here. Keep it up!
40 years you'll see
w8 wat- O FUK
Hey VSauce Micheal here. Wait, what is...nuke?
I'm an American and have literally never heard of people eating sushi with cream cheese. What the hell is wrong with you people?
I'm an American as well and there are some sushi here with cream cheese, though it's mostly in supermarkets. I normally don't like cheese except on Pizza or mexican food, though I dislike cream cheese, I think cream or any type of cheese on sushi is gross, an abomination and it doesn't mix well, to me it spoils the whole fun of sushi.
Philadelphia rolls have cream cheese in them. Fairly popular variety.
Eww
FOOD IS FOOD
It's actually not bad. Try it before you judge. I used to "hate" dipping my pizza in ranch. I love trying new foods, even if they sound gross. But ranch on pizza sounded to me like burning the Italian flag and then spitting ranch on it. Regardless at some point I tried it and now I love it. Especially with hot sauce.
I saw this in my recommended, and for a brief, glorious three seconds I was hit with the hope that you had posted again, that I would not, in fact, not see you again for three years. Alas, it is an older video, and my hope was destroyed like that one baby in the stomach of Tartare.
I love how gentle and nice the Japanese people kicking you out seems.
"30 years, you'll see!"
“I do say , these are some dank ass fish thingies” LMAO
This is funny as shit!
*shows video of my dog pooping*
Omg Roriee just pooped in the car noo nooo no he put a turd on me.
wait what is nuke? 40 YEARS YOU'LL SEE lol

What?

Idea: Sam just makes video after video rating common foods. Like his slander on Swiss Miss (Instant Piss) but on all kinds of foods from all kinds of countries. I would love to see his slander on Spanekopita (a Greek side dish which is basically just spinach in between layers of crinkly pastry but the pastry isn’t sweet it’s a savory dish)
Major Correction: the Meiji restoration was not an "imperial takeover" it was a revolution which saw His Majesty, Emperor Meiji restored to full power and the abolition of the samurai class. It brought about rapid industrialization and turned japan into a major world power
I've heard that early sushi was comparable to surströmming, which makes sense since both involve light pickling and fermentation. (Surströmming is even Swedish for "sour (fresh water) herring", so the naming checks out.)
8th century or 900 AD?
what is the first century? years 0-100
second century? 101-200 so yes
Ezekiel Briones no, 8th century 700-800 AD, 900 AD is 900 AD to 1000 AD
Oh right lololol. so dumb
***** there wasnt a year 0. Dont ask me why, there just wasnt. it was 1 BC and then the 1 AD. So your explanation of why the ninth century started in 800 is wrong. The ninth century started in first day of the the year 801 AD.
Dante Reynoso You're right about no year zero, because AD wasn't invented until >100AD. However, each century starts in he 00s. That's why January 1st 2000 is part of the 21st century.
Watching all these old videos is the only way to fill the hole in my heart ever since he left us...Sam we miss you!!
"The weird smelly kid from today ..."
Someone's got demons.
It's me. I do.
I do say, these are some dank ass video thingies.
00:13 8th century is the 700s not 900s 0:13
I was looking for this. Thank you intelligent person!
I noticed that too
thoroughly enjoyed this narrative and clever animations !! Brillant!
If I remember correctly, when western travelers first came over to Japan, the style of sushi was still just a slice of fish on a rice ball. But, having to actually look at the raw fish grossed out the Westerners, and this eventually lead to the roll-style sushi to make it more appealing. Of course, I only heard this on some "How It's Made" show a few years back, so it could be wrong
Ive learned more with stick drawings than my whole school life
Bro honestly
Yeah because this information is useful in any way
@@juanferrer5924 it is
California rolls are the best and you can’t change my mind
I prefer the diarreah roll with brown eel
Oh yeah?
Try eating somewhere besides a Vons
Baked or Fried California Rolls are even better. There, mind changed.
“I would like to order a California roll the one with mangoes please “
Japanese sushi master slowly unsheathes his sushi knife
I got an advertisement about a sushi catering service just before this lol
If you don’t eat the fish the right way, you get Sam ‘O Nella.
no
Am in Japan right now. Can confirm different Sushi.
How is it? Better? Worse? Indescribably different from American taste sensibilities?
Yo Momz
probably a lot more “Japanese” if that makes sense. More seafood and pickled Asian veggies and less murican foods and gimmicks like “firecracker roll”. More sashimi (uncooked meat).
Kevin Benoit sounds like heaven! Pickled veggies r fantastic
@@yomomz3921 I went to Italy a few years ago. Tried their pizza. Yuck. I'll take Pizza Hut any day.
Just because it's "authentic" doesn't always mean it's better. But I hope DEATHBOT enjoyed their sushi anyway.

2:07 can confirm
At 1:18, the Edo Period is supposed to be pronounced “eh-doh” (えど)
He-don't care
as a mexican i believe people who put cream cheese on their sushi should also be lost at sea
I really miss this guy.
