Answers:
Sushi should be a meal but you could easily make it a side dish if you want by making some steamed veggies, salad etc!. You should check the exact fish that you are eating to make sure that it doesn't have too much mercury!. You can do that by going to this website http://www!.gotmercury!.org/article!.php!?li!.!.!.
There you will put in your weight, the fish you are eating and how much and it will tell you if the mercury levels are too high!. Mercury is dangerous in high levels but as long as you eat a fish that is low in mercury then you should be fine!. It's not at all fattening and is otherwise pretty healthy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I live japanese food! You can have it as a meal!. I usually get 2 or 3 rolls and share it with someone as a meal!.

Sometimes I'll eat it as a side too!. I'll order a bento box or an entree and get a sushi roll on the side!.

You should not eat raw fish everyday!. I've had it three days in a row, but wouldn't recommend anymore than that!. Bacteria can grow easier!. I know someone who ate 5 lbs of rawfish in one sitting (I'm not sure why) and got tapeworms!. You should also have wasabi or the white shredded radish, it's yummy and it kills some of the bacteria that can grow on raw fish!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sushi is a meal in itself unless you only eat a piece or two- I go out with my sister and friends all the time for it and it's so good!.

I don't see why eating it everyday would be bad- and no sushi is not fattening, unless you eat only the shrimp sushi, shrimp has a lot of cholesterol, but california rolls and things like that are low fat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

please remember that there is rice (carb) in sushi and also sometimes mayo and it can also be high in salt!. as a meal its pretty complete with the carb and protein so you can make it into a meal!. Sushi is traditionally served as an appetizer and not a side dish!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i love eating eat too!. you can make it a meal or side dish
Sushi isn't bad it is very healthy for your body!. Fishes have a lot of healthy nutrients!. when you cook a fish it's Vitamin D and E gets destroied, but sushies don't!. this is why japaneese people live for a long timeWww@FoodAQ@Com

Sushi is a meal! and you can eat it everyday- just watch the amount of rice and find a good balance!. It is not fattening, if you avoid the creamy sauces, tempura and anything fried!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
