Raw fish. It has officially been 2 hours since consuming raw fish and my body seems to still functioning properly. It was actually very good. But even better then sushi is shochu. At first I was very skeptical of a cloudy white drink however when the taste erupted in my mouth it was fantastic. It had the best of both wine and beer. A very interesting combination. This prompted a discussion of the evolution of beer. It was theorized that ancient societies who didn't learn to brew beer and wine were more susceptible to spoiled water and thus were not naturally selected. Beer drinkers were victorious. whoo celebrate our heritage. Dogfish Head brewery certainly has. They recreated a 9,000 year old Chinese beer based on residues in pottery jars.
