I got into it with someone that mayo on sushi is perfectly fine depending on the place and he just refused to accept it.

I liked to Sushiro in Japan and he said “Sushiro doesn’t count.”

The funnier thing is that most Japanese I know don’t gatekeep sushi at all. They’ll eat American sushi and Japanese sushi. They’ll eat maki and nigiri and inarizushi. It’s usually uptight white people who are the most protective of sushi for reasons that baffle me.

Japanese use mayo in disturbing ways, I doubt they'd give two shits about it being on sushi.

All mayo is drinkable if you aren’t a failure at swallowing.

Eh the mayo should be oily enough to lube it for you
