    just eat your food. to say there is one way to eat any food is silly. If these restaurants wanted us to eat sushi "properly", we wouldn't be offered chopsticks, as sushi is meant to be eaten by hand.

    my knowledge is that soy sauce is unnecessary but if requested should only be applied directly to the meat, never the rice. wasabi should already be applied by the chef between the meat and rice when consuming nigiri, only adding more to the top to taste, again only adding wasabi to the top side of sashimi to taste as well. sushi is always to be consumed whole, never split.

    Seriously though, how many of us "reset" our palate with ginger between pieces, or eat the fish in the "correct" order? Like I said, silly.
