Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I want to say it's some reason a long the lines of "it was masterfully creafted in such a way that the only best experience is to eat the whole thing at once, and to do otherwise is to insinuate a lack of respect", with the disclaimer that I don't actually know if that's what it is.
I think a good display of respect and that you enjoyed something, is to finish your plate. But that doesn't mean you got to swallow everything at once?!
As I understand it, sushi in this context is specifically made to be a single bite.
Yeah I was confused by that part, too. I have always eaten sushi in a few bites. Maybe I'm a big pale skinned dickhead.
When getting sushi in the US it's not uncommon to get, at least in my opinion, non bite sized pieces. Like the super deluxe roll with 15 things in it isn't going to be bite sized. However, I don't believe that's typical when getting sushi in Japan.
You're probably right. I think the form factor is mainly due to sushi being finger food. And Japanese people seem to like bite-sized food anyways. I mean they don't hand you a knife in the first place so there wouldn't be any way to cut your food even if you wanted.
I'm not an expert on sushi either. And I wonder if it really has a long tradition of how it's supposed to be done. I suppose what we deem authentic are relatively new inventions. Like conveyor-belt restaurants aren't from the 18hundreds. And they certainly didn't eat raw salmon before refrigerators were commonplace.
