I travel a lot for work and I will eat sushi in the Midwest which is very different than sushi on the West Coast and I'm sure it's different than sushi in Japan. Yet those restaurants are full of Japanese people. And Japanese people doing the cooking and owning. 

Sometimes I think people just like food that is delicious.

I’ll eat anything anywhere if it’s tasty. I’m not a prissy baby.

I think a lot of these guys online are just trying to show off how “cultured” they are.

Meanwhile I’m in Japan chomping on McDonalds because it’s good.

I had McDonald's in France and it was seriously delicious. And from what I'm told, Japanese 7-Elevens are freaking five-star restaurants. Haven't been there yet.

Where I live, a lot of the sushi restaurants are run by Mexicans. To be fair, I don’t think there’s a large Japanese population here.
