That is correct. Horse meat sushi.
I was at the local conveyor belt sushi place the other day and I was looking at the menu. For the description of one of the plates, “raw horsemeat.” This is of course close to the ’suquid.’
So I decide to ask a native friend what is horse meat, thinking surely it isn’t the fine four legged glue bottle fillers we have in the states. Damn was I wrong. Apparently horse is a delicacy here. Race horses are chopped up after they are no longer useful.
So naturally I had to try it… not too bad actually. A little fattier then a good piece of steak, not as fatty as pork, not as greasy as duck and almost as gamey as deer. Not that I have had any of these raw before. But it is definately worth trying and maybe having again. For the sushi aficionados out there, sasashi (ささし.) I am wondering if they have it in the states.
Let me know.
Damn horse eating muthafuckers.
I love those conveyor sushi places. We need one here…in my office…right now…i’m hungry…for horse.
I’m so hungry I could eat a fish. No wait, a horse, yeah, that’s it.
