come2meok, I couldn't make the time exception for Bio and Heather last round, so I can't this round. I'm sorry, but you would have been safe if it was earlier.
Kali...
you have been eliminated.
Lady Luck had a bad piece of fish recently and wanted me to eliminate anyone who chose seafood or dishes that generally contained seafood. According to Dictionary.com, sushi contains fish, so Kali, you have been eliminated.
The rest of you are safe.

Sushi doesn't always contain fish, there's vegitarian sushi.  The only kind I eat. Lol. |

Infact, sushi uses more shellfish more than regular fish. Crab and shrimp are mainly used. Egg is used quite a bit as well.  There is no fish. (the original sushi contains crap, no fish, due to regular fish at the time being considered "unfit for nobles" which sushi was for.) There are many types of sushi, MOST of them containing no fish whatsoever.  There can't be a ruling to if it contined fish, because there is a WIDE variety. I could be talking about nigirisushi, makizushi, oosakazushi or California roll sushi. (Only nigiri HAS to contain fish. Lol...) |

I will do some research and if it turns out that I am mistaken about sushi generally containing fish/seafood (I made sure the word 'generally' was there to avoid cases of a food sometimes being seafood and sometimes not), then you will be back in and have Round 4 exempt for you (don't do this next round since I need exact numbers here).

Thank you Jeff. I needed to make that clear, because I eat sushi containing no fish everytime I eat sushi. And I am well aware that there are different types of sushi. Japanese class teaches you a lot of cool stuff about food. I'm a gourmet. |

I have to agree with Kali. I love Japanese food and eat sushi quite often, there are too many kinds of sushi it does not always contain fish.

Thank you, momo.  BTW, momo... I was playing the Bleach game and I was talking to Liz about it, I kept saying that I'm awesome playing as Momo Hinamori... I had to say: "I'm good at playing as Momo... Not RGO momo." Lol. Hey, if I get to should fire from a sword in a fighting game, I'm happy. |

I have to disagree a little bit. Not just to cause turmoil but when the word sushi comes to mind what automatically does the mind associate with it-Fish. I think this is GENERALLY unfair to the rest of the people playing the game because for the most part someone could make that arguement about any dish unless it was only a fish.
Also on Dictionary.com(as you said) EACH definition defines sushi as having fish

Most of those definitions contain the words OR raw fish.
It's a stereo type to think that sushi always contains fish, though.
Fish is optional. It isn't a salmon meal. Or is it fish sticks. OR is it halibut. Fish stew? Nope.
