		<title>When sushi is more than sushi</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At times, the most minor difference can make a tremendous impact; something that may not seem obvious but leaves a tip of the tongue realization. A new restaurant has opened near me and has grown on me quite a bit, but it is easy to know why. It is a seemingly small difference, however it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wasabi - Our sushi chat forum is live again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While I prefer to post fascinating tidbits of piscatory goings-on, I wanted to mention to everyone that Wasabi, the SushiFAQ forum, is back in action. After an onslaught of spam (Close Encounters of the Nasty Kind) the cleanup effort caused a minor (OK, major) explosion in the database and all posts have been lost due [...]]]></description>

		<title>Has Sushi Jumped The Shark?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sushi has been a popular item in the west for a few decades now and as with anything that makes its way across cultures, it has readily changed to better match western palates.

		<title>Where to buy sushi grade fish</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Making sushi at home is fun, easy, and actually less expensive than going out to a restaurant. Aside from the intimidation factor, the big issue that many people seem to have, and ask me all the time, is where do you get sushi grade fish to make sushi at home… While I have a few [...]]]></description>

		<title>Restaurant Certification 1, Sushi Police 0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In what is good news for California Roll eaters, today Japan has formally announced a campaign for certifying Japanese food overseas without Big Brother inspecting the sushi. Initially covered back in December of 2006 in my piece “The sushi police are here to see you,” the Japanese ministry of Agriculture, along with a “non-governmental group [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Tuna Tempest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The fish hit the fan the other day with the publication the New York Times article regarding the risk of mercury in tuna, which I covered in my entry Some More Mercury With Your Tuna? But was it junk science? Or was it something that needed to be said? Rebuttals came swiftly, and among them, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Some more mercury with your tuna?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You are what you eat. While I always questioned this in a literal sense as a child, it is pretty much the case. But I don&#8217;t want to be made of heavy metals, and my body agrees. It is no news to anyone that we are poisoning our oceans, and unfortunately that means our food [...]]]></description>

At the ICCAT (International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tuna) meeting last week, a critical decision was to be made regarding the 2008 bluefin tuna quotas, a decision that could be one of the most important in saving the species. While the head [...]]]></description>

		<title>Troubles for Tuna III - Toro Tomorrow?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the most popular sushi items, bluefin tuna, from which we get maguro, and toro, is almost gone. I have made a few posts about declining tuna stocks in Troubles for Tuna and Troubles for Tuna II, and am quite happy to be able to write that there may be some good news for [...]]]></description>
