That's a lot of wasabi.
- radicalbyte 7y agoUnless you've never had wasabi before. I use about a tablespoon (3 x as much) when I eat sushi (~6 pieces) but I like it spicy.
- mikekchar 7y agoI also eat wasabi in large quantities. I'll eat it on its own with beer. But interestingly, I have problems with chest pains on occasion and the doctors have been at a complete loss to explain it. I wonder... I'll give up wasabi for a while and see what happens.
- tidenly 7y agoIf you're eating straight up with just beer then I'd say that's hardly a mystery.. that's not a good combo for the stomach.
- Enginerrrd 7y agoSadly, this was my first experience with wasabi. I didn't know what it was, but thought since it was green, that it was avocado-based. I was on a first date with this chick. I took what I believed at the time to be a "small" spoonful and popped it into my mouth directly. I am remarkably good at maintaining my composure under such duress, but that was a lot to handle. You can't hide the sweat and tears behind a smile, although I tried. To this day, I can't do wasabi. My body decided it was poison at that moment and I'm very sensitive to the flavor.
