Sushi is one of the most famous dishes in Japan.
The two main types of sushi are nigiri-zushi and norimaki.
Norimaki has pieces of fish and/or vegetables rolled with rice
plates of sushi that pass in front of the customers on a conveyor belt.
Nowadays sushi can be defined as a dish containing rice.

The original type of sushi was the so called nare-sushi
Nare-sushi was made of this gutted fish stored in fermented rice for preservation.
The earliest reference to sushi in Japan appeared in 718 in the set of laws called Yororitsuryo
Smelled like "a cross between blue cheese, fish, and rice vinegar".
The late 20th century saw sushi gaining in popularity all over the world.

Chopsticks were developed about 5,000 years ago in China
In Japan, chopsticks were originally considered precious and were used exclusively for religious ceremonies
The earliest chopsticks used for eating looked like tweezers
they were made from one piece of bamboo that was joined at the top
Japanese chopsticks differed in design from Chinese chopsticks in that they were rounded and came to a point

School Meals In Japan
There are no dining rooms, only classrooms
The food is sent up to
each classroom Upon arrival every child in
the class has a role to
play. They lay out their own
individual place mat
brought in from home. Each child in this school
aged 7 – 12 gets the same menu

An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane
Sets of origami paper are sold widely in Japan
Commonly the cranes are assembled as 25 strings of 40 cranes each

I would love to visit Japan I love Sushi ! I would want to learn how to use
chopsticks the right way. I think bamboo is very pretty
looking. I wouldn’t want to have the school
meals though.
