What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world? (lemm.ee)

There are places in Japan that actually serve chicken sashimi.

I've tried it, and I ate the whole plate, but I wouldn't do it again.

Raw chicken tastes like it smells, and it's just inferior to every other sashimi - not outright repulsive, but just not as good.

I honestly don't understand how those specialty chicken sashimi places stay in business. I guess there must be an audience for it, but I can't imagine why.

That's nasty and I ate bad sushi from Publix last week.

You have to be in the South. Now that I think about it, Florida sushi sounds like a euphemism for gator roadkill. Florida gas station sushi sounds terrifying.

Haha I did get some gator from a truck stop tiki bar, it was not good either.... I've lost control of my life.

It's completely normal for stores to keep cooked, deli style chicken on non-refrigerated shelves all day. I don't trust it.

This is what we heard. So when visiting my brother, the whole group tried it. Everyone got salmonella poisoning and had explosive diarrhea for two days. That was an interesting shinkansen trip.

Your intuition is right on this, don't eat raw chicken.

I googled.

"When cooked, chicken can be a nutritious choice, but raw chicken can be contaminated with Campylobacter, Salmonella, or Clostridium perfringens germs. If you eat undercooked chicken, you can get a foodborne illness, also called food poisoning."

Yeaaaaaah, no way I'll try it.

Then I think I would like to try cookie dough sashimi

What if you get salmonella!?
