I'd take a great burger over a great curry or a great chow mein any day. I know that's so American, but it's the truth.

i think cooked fish tastes more fishy than raw fish, sushi. If the fish smells really fishy in sushi then it's probably not very fresh, and you shouldn't eat it.

I actually like seafood in general. It's just sushi and tuna I can't stand.

No, the most common form of sushi is usually wrapped in seaweed.

My favorite roll from the place i go to is shrimp tempura, avocado, with baked salmon on the outside and teriyaki sauce. It's very yummy. Not all sushi is raw.

sashimi is when you just get raw fish. I like sashimi too, it's just really fresh fish cut into bite sized bits.

Indian is my favourite cuisine, I love it.

I don't really eat Chinese food that much, the egg fried rice is always nice though.

That is incorrect. The indian food you will be eating actually could be classified as 'English food' because it is most likely not authentic and most indian curries that are served in indian places in the uk are recipes made by english people.

Indian and Chinese food in the actual origin country tastes very very different.

I wonder if indian and chinese food in America is different than indian and chinese food in the UK. ANd i wonder which is more authentic. It would be an interesting show. comparing ethnic food around the world, which are most authentic, which are most different, which are best. I'd watch that show.

I wonder what chinese food is like in Argentina, or Australia, or Japan. I wonder what Indian food is like in Canada, Indonesia, and Germany.

That would be a good TV show, if they travelled the world trying one type of food in many different countries.

It's impossible to compare in here. Maybe we could all photograph our takeaways from now on though and post them here
