I’d pull the fish out of it and cook it. The fish should be fine to eat once cooked. For future reference, if you get sushi or sashimi and immediately freeze it, you can then defrost and eat it when you wish.
I would.
Walk on the wild side, my penguin buddy.
Probably although the sushi I eat has no fish in it. Like the avocado = crab sushi. It’ll be fine. Or is crab a fish ? lol
@Aster The crab in sushi is cooked as are the shrimp ones. The others – tuna and salmon – are not.
It would depend on the type.
Not the tuna or salmon. Not without cooking them. But also I probably wouldn’t eat any of the sushi because it just won’t taste good after a couple of days.
I wouldn’t, personally, but that’s because I like sushi to be cool/cold, but rice has a tendency to dry out and harden in the fridge and it would be ruined in my opinion. Additionally, my favorite type of sushi contains avocado, at which the avocado would have turned brown. However, I’ll echo that I don’t think eating raw meat that’s been sitting for a couple of days is a good idea.
Yes. Unless it’s moldy or smells bad. I’d probably slosh sauce over it, to make it less dry.
Concerned more about health issues; if I took a bite and it didn’t taste good, I wouldn’t have it.
2 days is fine….but at the stroke of midnight it will morph into Penguin poison. ;-)
2 days… as in Tuesday night’s leftovers? If it went straight into the fridge, I’d smell them first and probably would eat them. It also depends on the place you got it from. If it’s a restaurant that you frequent and has a good reputation, it should be OK. For example, I’ve only eaten at SAWA once and it was delicious, and many of my friends eat there frequently, so I would trust their stuff to be very fresh.
Hell no. If fish has ever made you ill, you’d instantly know the answer to this question.
^^^Flush the fish then! haha
My sushi lovers say it depends on how fresh it was when it went in. Do you trust the source?
Hell no!!! First of all, seafood is very perishable, as @YARNLADY says, do you know how fresh it was when you bought it??? I only eat suishi that I see being made right before my very eyes. But I am a fanatic about this food in particular. I have had several belly aches because of it. Oh yeah, don’t forget about the rice, it too does not have a good shelf life after being cooked.
I see this question is 7 hours old, did you eat it and if so, how do you feel now???
The whole damn point of sushi is that it’s fresher than sunlight.
Don’t eat it if it isn’t slapped on your table immediately after being sliced in front of you within about an hour of coming out of the ocean.
As for sushi in plastic trays from the grocery store. No. No. Not even.
@rooeytoo As I said above, I decided to dump it.
I didn’t see that @janbb – I think that was a wise decision!
For me it would totally depend upon how it smelled. I really trust my nose. I’ve got a very keen sense of smell and it hasn’t failed me yet.
For the record, I did eat sushi that was about a day and a half old. The rice was kind of hard, so I just took the fish out, put on a little soy sauce and everything was fine.
My nose knows. If it passes the smell test, I’d probably chance it. Start with a small bite. Wait half an hour. If all is well, take a whole piece. Wait a while before eating the rest.
I would really much rather have sushi and sashimi absolutely fresh. I can rarely afford it.
I didn’t imagine it was grocery store sushi. I wouldn’t buy it, let alone save leftovers.
Quite aside from anything else the Nori would be soggy and chewy. I reckon sushi has to be extremely fresh to be palatable.
@janbb Real penguins like their sashimi still-flopping fresh.
