One down, eleven to go

As I said in a previous post I am trying to do 12 new things before my 20th birthday next year, today I decided to try Sushi. This was a spur of the moment decision in Asda today when food shopping with my mum and brother.

(The sushi out of the packaging. 1, Cucumber hosomaki. 2, red pepper hosomaki. 3, Tuna and red pepper California roll. 4, Prawn California roll. 5, not a clue - Soy sauce maybe.)
I managed to eat the two pieces of hosomaki, they were fine. I had no problem with them. Then I picked up the prawn california roll. Baring in mind I don't really like fish. I was trying to open my horizons, try new things, including fish. You know when a baby sits out food it doesn't like, I did that, only less elegantly. Reaching out for my drink to flush away the fish taste. I didn't even attempt the Tuna and red pepper california. The prawn taste had put me off. I don't think in future I am going to eat sushi. Though this experience has made me more open to trying different types of fish, different ways of cooking fish.
The sushi experience was a good and bad one. I won't be eating Sushi again but I will be trying different types of fish. Has anyone else had any experiences with Sushi? Good or bad? It would be interesting to read the experiences of others with Sushi.
