    How has no one mentioned the ring yet? What’s that placement on the finger? It looks like half of it is right on the joint and it looks like 3d printed plastic. It’s a wedding ring but no material that lasts looks like that.

      That’s a safety ring. They’re silicone rings you were around machinery. You can still wear a representative wedding band but it won’t degloved you if you catch it on a blade or if it snags during a fall. Climbers wear them too.

      Not uncommon for people in mechanical fields to use rubber wedding bands in place of a conventional, they ahve a breakaway cut so if they get caught in a machine they just tear open…

      The blue is an interesting choice though.

      This is also a grocery store Philly Roll. We’re already past simple fusion and into some Red Giant Helium-to-Oxygen shit. If my man wants some ranch, then so be it. He’s not denying himself an unsullied cross-cultural experience.

          Around here (Texas), it’s the cream cheese and smoked salmon that make a place call it a Philly Roll, and the avocado vs cucumber varies by restaurant. Avocado is pretty popular though, because anything that evokes Tex-Mex will find an audience.

          Standard Philly roll is raw salmon, cream cheese, and avocado, but some places do it differently while maintaining the name. The only hard requirements are salmon (some places even use smoked salmon and call it a Philly roll, which I disagree with, but whatever) and cream cheese.

            Last time I got a Philadelphia roll, it was smoked salmon and boy was I disappointed. The smokey flavor overpowered everything. Defeats the entire purpose of sushi imo

            I’m not disagreeing with you, cuz I don’t know, but wikipedia says:

            A Philadelphia roll is a makizushi (also classified as a kawarizushi)[1] type of sushi generally made with smoked (or sometimes raw) salmon, cream cheese, and cucumber, with the rice on the outside (uramaki).[2] It is sometimes made with imitation crab instead of salmon, but can be found to include other ingredients, such as other types of fish,[3] cucumber,[4] scallions,[5] and sesame seed. Like many Western-inspired sushi rolls, its design and name are modified to target an American market, which includes putting the rice on the outside, and the nori in the inside (inside-out sushi) to appeal to western aesthetics.[6][7]

              I wonder why the inside out roll is supposed to appeal more to westerners. As a westerner, I don’t mind the nori on the outside.

                I didn’t think I would care, but now that I’ve had both many times I absolutely prefer the rice on the outside.

                I caught that too. I think it’s the dark color on the outside? They sell onigiri in a lot of our grocery stores and I’ve only seen them covered with opaque wrappings. That’s why I think it’s correct, but I’m not sure. It could also seem less chewy when it’s on the outside because there’s more to stretch? Just guessing.

                  Having only thought about it just now, I do prefer the flavor and texture of biting into rice first as opposed to seaweed first.

              Wow. Time for me to make an edit because that is some bullshit.

              It is sometimes made with imitation crab instead of salmon

              I can’t even imagine where this came from because I have never encountered this and I have been eating sushi all over the world. It is never made with imitation crab.

        I’ve seen photos of sushi burritos on menus, but I’m always confused as to how you’re supposed to eat it? Do you pick it up and bite into it like a burrito? And it doesn’t immediately fall apart?

          Sushi burritos are basically a giant sushi roll you eat like a hand roll or sushi rolls.

          If the burrito is say two pieces only, pick it up, pour your preferred sauce on top and bite.

          If the burrito is more than two pieces, it’s now a giant sushi roll you can eat with chopsticks or a fork.

          Try one! They’re delicious.

            I’m just trying to imagine biting into a giant sushi roll and tearing, without it breaking and falling apart… Have you ever tried eating a regular sushi roll in more than one bite? That shit does not tear cleanly.

        I think the biggest thing aboot poutine isnt that poutine is amazing. It’s that it unlocked some amazing fusions.

        Butter chicken poutine.
        Chicken shawarma poutine.
        Vindaloo poutine.

        It’s all good.

        If it’s saucy and tastes good with cheese, poutine it. It will be amazing.

          The California Gold Rush was literally right after the territory was ceded from Mexico, so even if burittos had come from then they might as well have been still effectively Mexican anyway.

          Definitely going to try that with some sour cream and salsa

          Also, California burritos are fusion? Burrito is a Californian invention, and French fries are pretty American (sorry Belgium).

          Burritos are Mexican, Fries are American, thus the fusion into a California Burrito containing a protein + fries + guacamole and salsa.

          Souce: Southern California Native.

          Side note, I miss Dunkirk and Antwerp lol… That’s where I got introduced to Carbonade flamande. Now I make it at home using Chimey ale, throw some cilantro/coriander in there with belgian fries and parmesan on top… So good.

            As a fellow Southern California native, I’m now extra intrigued that you consider California Burrito to be fusion. I’ve lived in San Diego for over 40 years and have always considered it local cuisine, the fusion aspect never crossed my mind.

            If you’re still around, this is the place that made the chicken tikka masala burrito:

        Kimchi Mac N Cheese

        For those reading and thinking “what the actual fuck”, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. This is in steady rotation at my place. You’d think American cheese is a bad fit for asian food, but budae jjigae has been a staple comfort dish in Korea since the war and proudly boasts this flavor combo.

        Anyway, this dish is incredible. The kimchi funk is mellowed by the other ingredients and contributes acid, spice, and seasoning to the overall dish for practically zero effort.

        Top and finish as you like. Here, we like to take it deeper into East Asia by adding chopped green onions, fried shallots, peanuts, and chili crisp.

            Yes, but more like “kimchi to taste”. For the typical Kraft box, I’d say more like half a cup of kimchi, but please do sneak up on what you think is a good amount if its your first time. For reference, a lot of Korean dishes serve at least a quarter-cup per serving.

      Japan’s most popular fairly-priced national sushi chain is doing things much more wild than ranch on a rotating monthly basis. Every time I’m in Japan for work I stop in to Sushiro just to see what they’re doing this month that would make American weebs angry.

      That’s my thought. There’s nothing more offensive about ranch than using cream cheese.

      I used to live in Japan, and from what I could see, Japanese people aren’t fundamentally opposed to the concept of sushi with weird ingredients. They simply just don’t think it’s normal sushi.

        Right? I’m Canadian. Poutine is a culture here, especially Quebec (Where I lived for a short time). Poutine is straight fries, fresh cheese curds, and gravy. That’s it.

        You can totally add whatever you want to it. Plenty of restaurants exist to make pulled pork or extra loaded poutine. Want to add green onions? Ceaser dressing? Tater tots? Have at er, bud. Just don’t call it a traditional poutine.

        I make sushi at home. I used to work in a sushi shop full time. We had all the traditional rolls for people but also some off the cuff ones like with cream cheese and such.
