What with USB sushi memories, sushi police, giant sushi, and the difficulty of making sushi in outer space, it’s not surprising that Japan Culture Lab has created a how-to video on the correct Japanese way of consuming the traditional raw fish and rice treat. Actually, the video may be somewhat satirical and not to be taken that seriously. Most of its advice may actually be spurious. Or not.

The two main actors are apparently a comedy duo in Japan called Ra-menzu (Rahmens). The Japan Culture Lab has made a whole series of these, which are used as training videos for the sushi police and other government agencies, as well as to instruct the uninitiated in various aspects of Japanese culture. None of them should be believed, but they’re funny anyway. Samples are available on YouTube.

Probably this link has been posted before–but I couldn’t find any evidence. Even if so, if anyone missed it they will surely be amused by this series of videos.
