Eating 'em is supposed to be good for your hair. 
So I'm munching on some "nori" seaweed paper as I type this. | |

It's the same as what we roll sushi rice in, only it's sweetened by "mirin", unrefined rice alcohol that's used as a sweetener in Japanese cooking, to make it a bit tastier. This is the type that is served with plain cooked rice, and is called "ajitsuke nori" meaning nori with taste.  | |

|  hmmmmm....
Ok...here's another question about sushi....
You know how they have type names??
Like "Sushi Nori"....is that b/c it's rolled in "nori" seaweed paper??? Sooo interesting.
I've always wondered this?? But, didn't know that the seaweed was called Nori..... | |
