ehem,
Wasabi is a long standing tradition in Japan and Japanese restaurants everywhere. On the sushi, with the sushi or, sashimi... and it is believed to help kill parasites. I don't know about mouth bacteria

For many years that is the only way I knew of eating sushi/sashimi was with some wasabi either on the fish, or mixed into the soy sauce. I prefer mixing some wasabi into my dipping sauce. It gives it a kick and a schnazzle- POW!
But then, there is wasabi and wasbi. Most wasabi is really horse radish with coloring, so be on the look out.

Belief is not really helpful.
The question: do you need wasabi.
Answer: no, absolutely not.
Question: is wasabi included in this diet
answer: no. And as a munch food, it is a bad one.
If you are looking for a kick and a schnazzle, dont try this diet.
With a normal diet however, you can get all the kicks and schnazzles that you need (hot peppers, salt, taste enhancers etc etc).

Maybe we should take a poll to see how many people eat their raw fish plain or with some kind of flavoring.
I agree Wasabi would be a munch food. But some would argue its badness. The wasabi you could buy in tubes would be truly processed and 'bad'.
RRM:
Is wasabi included in this diet? I would say yes if you believe anything Wai wrote about munch foods being 'allowed'. It's most likely healthier than cottage cheese, yes? Or ice Cream? Which 'IS' allowed as a munch food.

I'm sorry, but its not included.avalon wrote:Is wasabi included in this diet? I would say yes if you believe anything Wai wrote about munch foods being 'allowed'. It's most likely healthier than cottage cheese, yes?
This diet is not just about health. The diet was originally designed for acne and cellulite in particular, and wasabi (like hot peppers etc) makes you retain water and was therefore excluded from the diet.
Munch foods are 'bad' foods that do no have a that much of an influence on health or water retention. So wasabi is not considered a good mumch food.
Polls or anyone's point of view will never change this diet.avalon wrote:Maybe we should take a poll to see how many people eat their raw fish plain or with some kind of flavoring.
Wasabi is not included in the diet, and not a good munch food.

I understand this premise. But Wasabi plants aren't peppers are they? Wasabi belongs to the mustard family.The diet was originally designed for acne and cellulite in particular, and wasabi (like hot peppers etc) makes you retain water and was therefore excluded from the diet.

Indeed, and they are very hot tasting seeds, similar as hot peppers.avalon wrote:But Wasabi plants aren't peppers are they? Wasabi belongs to the mustard family.
It doesnt matter to what family they belong, but what influence they have.
Anything hot may cause water retention.I've been under the impression that Wasabi helps with water retention.
Only if eating wasabi or hot peppers causes diarrhea, this will decrease water retention.
I like Wasabi and I don't like hot peppers for the reason Wasabi is like a quick burst in the sinuses, where peppers can break a sweat and a burning sensation that lasts and lasts.
To me they are very different. I'm not much into spicy food.
Also I don't like Wasabi on Yellow Tail or Salmon, but love it on Tuna. Maybe that's because I find Tuna a little flat tasting.

I thought I would be the one to point out here that real wasabi is extremely expensive. Here in New York, I almost never see it available, even at high end Japanese stores.avalon wrote:I like Wasabi and I don't like hot peppers for the reason Wasabi is like a quick burst in the sinuses, where peppers can break a sweat and a burning sensation that lasts and lasts.

Almost all wasabi sold in the US and Japan is actually made from horseradish and mustard with food coloring added to give the appearence of the real thing.
But the stuff definitely is not good for your skin. I'd rather take my chances with some liquor.
