Does your state have it’s own take on sushi? What does it look like?

1. Yeah. It just looks a hell of a lot like a pulled pork sandwich.

2. a lot of places in nyc have a new york roll, but i don’t think there’s a consensus on the proper ingredients

   can we just say a calzone is a baked non-rice-based sushi and call it a day?

3. I’m sure some restaurant somewhere in New England is making a Lobster sushi roll. I just have never seen it.

4. I mean, there’s a “California Roll”. I feel like pretty much anyone who has eaten sushi knows what’s in that: crab, cucumber, avocado.

5. I’ve seen Philadelphia rolls with salmon and cream cheese in different states.

   Fun fact: the company that makes philadelphia cream cheese is based in upstate new York and always has been. They named it after Philly for branding as the area to the west of the city was known for high quality dairy at the time

6. Seattle rolls have cream cheese in them

7. I’ve seen lobster in sushi around here. Not common, but definitely an attempt to make it a Maine thing.

8. there’s regional sushi here that often has some cream cheese. but there’s also a a ton of really really legit sushi here. just depends on where you go and what you’re looking for

9. One of the most common types of sushi, the inside out roll comes from California. So most sushi you have probably eaten isn’t Japanese sushi, it’s California’s take on sushi.

10. Why is this harmless post being downvoted? lol

11. I think sweet potato rolls are regional. Roasted sweet potatoes or sweet potato tempura- either is great.

12. Not really but a sushi chef near me has made various rolls inspired by nearby towns. They’re pretty good.

13. I’ve seen Nebraska rolls. I never get them because they’re not “real” sushi to me. I can’t even think what’s in them.
