i honestly don't think i can eat anything from the ocean, except salt.
i make myself try, and i always throw up. the idea of sushi doesn't bother me in the least, but one of my most shameful memories was embarrassing my family as i gagged up sushi in front of the chef. i tried to swallow it, but it just wouldn't go down Posts: 3936 | Registered: Jul 2000

Don't feel bad porcelain girl, my brother did the same thing his first time. Actually it was oysters that he instantly recycled so kindly for the waiter, steamed oysters at that. He was only four, so he was forgiven.
Now he can't get enough.
Yummmmmmmmmmmy!
My mother swears my love of anything from the sea is due to the fact that I was conceived in Puyallup Washington. My parents ate fresh fish everynight.
I can eat it raw, boiled, steamed, smoked or baked anytime!

Regarding ginger, I think dried, powdered ginger is a very versatile seasoning. And actual ginger root when put in food (such as fried rice or certain soups) makes the rest of the food taste good. But the ginger itself still tastes awful. When my mom used to make fried rice more often--back before the Atkins days--I always had to be careful to pick out the little ginger bits. Even so, every now and then I'd get a little ginger packet and make faces until the taste was out of my mouth.
