		<description><![CDATA[If there is one type of rice that best represents sushi and Japanese culinary arts, it is Koshihikari rice (often called “Koshi rice”). Koshihikari rice is considered a super-premium short grain rice that is unique in its characteristics, with a firmness, consistency, aroma, and a natural sweetness that is without peer in the rice world.

I added another table with nigiri sushi items as well, so no more back of the envelope calculations for you all.

Well, actually, that’s kind of a lie; I snacked while he spoke of his latest work, The Last Fish Tale. He came to the local Community Association in a small [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve also included some interesting tid-bits about how the poison can be used in other ways, and how a person can actually eat fugu with no fear of being [...]]]></description>
