I like all kinds of cheese, even French, Brie is a favorite.
Neither of us consumes any kind of alcohol with a meal, no particular
reason, we just don't... but that doesn't mean that we don't consume
alchohol before and/or after a meal. With a meal my wife drinks a
small pot of tea, I drink plain water.

What is a sushi dip... Heinz ketchup? For the life of me I can't
comprehend the point of bits of raw fish buried in rice, and after
paying those exhorbitant prices for raw tasteless fish and rice
dipping it in anything adds insult to injury... what pray tell is the
point... you either like tasteless raw fish and rice or you don't, but
don't try to play me by selling me it's worth the exhorbitant price
when it's dipped in some common condiment... eating sushi is exactly
the same as that story about "The kings new clothes", all about fakery
and bragging about spending a lot of money on nothing.

When I want tasty raw fish I'd much rather choose from a vast variety
of pickled herrings, costs a hell of a lot less and is infinitely
tastier. I've tried sushi, I don't consider it any kind of culinary
achievement unless you enjoy the mysterious circus production of its
preperation by an costumed Orientals. Me, I much rather matjes
herring on a bialy, at least it's flavorful and you don't need to
mortgage your house.
The Chinese can cook great food... the Japs can't cook a lick, they
put on a smarmy carny show futzing with wee tidbits of mysterious
vittles at your table, all smoke and fire, not much to eat, and
absolutely tasteless without common condiments. Actually the common
condiments are the main event, can omit the wee tidbits of raw
tasteless fish and rice. For about a buck you can chug-a-lug a bottle
of Heinz red and boast that you dined on sushi.
