No. No you may not. SUCKS TO BE YOU (in that regard anyway). Trust me, the minute I remembered that I could have sushi again, I almost cried. It was a religious moment.

I've read conflicting reports on that. Japanese women have been eating raw fish all this time and French women plow through their soft cheeses.

I've never gotten sick from sushi before, but I think that's in part that I know when it is good or bad, and which places are good to eat at.

I have to admit that I've been naughty here and there and had a bit of sushi. Not all the time, or even once a month, but just now and again.

I know... I just am afraid of getting yelled at. I've eaten sushi enough that I know when the sushi I've got is bad, and well, you don't eat it, plain and simple. Plus, there are non-raw options at most restaurants.

I also dared to eat some camembert somewhat recently.... mmmmm. camembert...

Couldn't you do something like an avacado roll? With no fishy bits?

actually, it isn't the sushi itself that I'm really banned from. They're just afraid of any diseases that you can get from sushi (or soft cheeses). Like a stomach bug. But the chances of that are really rare, especially if you go to a reputable restaurant.

And yes, I could have an avocado roll or a tempura roll if I wanted, most definitely! :)

My doctor said a little sushi every once in a while was no big deal. She didn't recommend eating it every week or eating grocery store sushi, but good quality tuna or yellowtail or salmon or whatever - she didn't have a problem with it at all. I avoided blue-veined & soft cheeses, but that was about all I avoided. I even had a little caffeine (occasional coffee or a diet soda) when I felt like it.

I've been naughty and have eaten some sushi here and there, and I've been just fine. Spicy food has done far more damage. And one of the ways I like my camembert best is baked with some sort of sauce and pastry, so that should kill any possible food disease right there, right?

I occasionally get a half-caff/half-decaff small latte at starbucks. :)

And I've occasionally had a half a glass of wine with dinner.

So I have been naughty. But I've not eaten sushi nearly as many times as I've craved it. Not even close.
