When I lived in Japan, I found out that they eat slices of the ginger between different types of sushi to clear their palate (take the taste of the last piece of sushi off of their tastebuds)!. Try it sometime, after you have one type of sushi, before you switch to another kind!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
That is pickled ginger, it is meant to cleanse the taste buds for the next course!.!.!.

It's slices of ginger!. I guess if you like ginger you can put it w/your sushi and eat it together!. I personally am not a fan of ginger, so I just leave it in the container!.!.!.lolWww@FoodAQ@Com
