That's horseradish in English, no matter that is green and chokes. English horseradish is white and non-choking.

I believe the cheap stuff is made by adding green dye to horseradish (sp?). The good stuff, called wasabi, is made from a plant that looks like a carrot, but it's a bit bigger and it's green. (It's pretty powerful stuff--the good wasabi. It goes right up your nasal cavity!) That's how you can tell the difference between the cheap stuff and the good stuff. In Japan, the cheap wasabi is sold at the 100 yen stores. It burns your throat.

Hi!

(I would prefer not to have any kind of raw fish at all. I do like seafood, but I like it cooked.)
