Answers:
Probably because most people think sushi is raw fish!. And when they think of raw fish they think of a piece of haddock or hake raw just like that!.
Contrary to popular western belief, sushi is seasoned rice with a sliver of raw fish or fried fish skins or cooked prawn or a variety of stuff such as avocado and cucumber in the middle of the rice roll!.
The raw fish slices are called sashimi and is usually from flavour-full rather oily fish such as tuna, salmon, butterfish, yellow tail, etc!.
You also dip both sushi and sashimi in a mixture of soy sauce and wasabi [Japanese horseradish]!.
The flavour is different from what Western palates are used to, so many people don't like it!. also a lot of people are put off by the idea of raw fish!.
Try it not once but at least twice!. Its usually only with the second sitting that people start enjoying it!. Most people I've introduced to sushi and sashimi didn't like it much the first time but tried it again and by the fourth time were addicts! Go with an open mind and try to enjoy :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

First of all sushi is not all raw!. A lot of people think that sushi is raw so they stay away from it!. There are alot of delicious cooked sushi rolls!. There are avacado rolls, tempura shrimp rolls, cooked shrimp rolls, california rolls ( very good) bbq eel roll, etc!. Sashimi is raw fish served as is or on rice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Friend owns Japanese restaurant, eat at Japanese restaurants, love making sushi and love having sushi parties at home!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's all personal taste!.!.!.like some people enjoy mushrooms and others don't!. Sushi has a very distinct taste which can turn some people off!. also, the raw fish may be a deal breaker for some people!. Especially if you have an aversion to that texture!. Just try something simple like California roll and work your way up! It's all about finding a taste combination you enjoy!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because the believe that all Sushi has raw fish!. What they don't realize that Sushi refers to the seasoned rice!. The raw fish is called Sahimi!. There are may kind of Sushi without ant raw fish at all!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
