Guest guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 This isn't a points-value guide, but it's what I use as a reference to figure points. It has calories, fat, and fiber PLUS all the other nutritional information. http://www.afcsushi.com/pages/nutrition.html PS- I eat sushi 2-3 times a week and not just the California Rolls either. =) I've never gained any weight when I used this guide to reference points, so I think they're right on. Oh, and take note of the number of pieces per roll. I find that this guide puts more pieces than what I typically get. For instance, Small Roll (tuna) *(aka Teka Maki or Tuna Roll) is listed w/ the information for 16 pieces. =) Sushi I don't suppose anyone's aware of a definitive points-value guide to all the varieties of sushi that are out there... -- Slainte, S.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 Actually yes, the Wwers site now has them listed out individually. Also there is a great website that has nutrition information for lots of different kinds of sushi.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 I don't know, I can easily eat ten or more pieces of sushi in one sitting. In fact I just journaled sushi for tonight's dinner. It's my birthday and we're going out to Todai for all you can eat sushi. I pre-journaled the most I thought I would eat so I knew exactly what I had leftover for the rest of the day. No birthday cake today. I'll have that Saturday, but I will have a blueberry crepe for dessert at Todai! So yeah, they're KIND of big servings, but if all you're eating is sushi I think 10-12 pieces is actually a reasonable, filling meal. I mean they aren't that big to begin with. I think it's just the IDEA of 12 pieces that sounds like " Wow, that's a lot!

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 The thing that threw me off when I first found that sushi webpage was that they weren't in typical serving sizes. Like, when I order a Saki Maki, it comes in 6 pieces, not 16. Granted, I might end up eatubg 12 or even 16 pieces, but I would have to make 2-3 orders, rather than just one. At first I was concerned that they made their pieces smaller and that's why they were able to get more pieces out of an order. But the points match up to the WW points (at least the few point values they give for sushi in the food companion) when you divide the nutritional information by how many pieces I actually ate. Wooh. I hope this message makes any sense at all. =) 175/158.4/130 Original Message: ----------------- From: Tory K msteechur@...

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Oh okay. I took it as really small pieces. But I guess 2 entire rolls for a meal isn't totally ridiculous. Thanks for clarifying!

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 Makes sense to me! I had 14 pieces of sushi for dinner last night and it was worth every single piece. Mmmm. Most was nigiri. I like just the raw fish and the rice. Don't mess it up with mayonaise or fake crab. > RE: Re: Sushi > > > > So yeah, they're KIND of big servings, but if all you're > eating is sushi I think 10-12 pieces is actually a > reasonable, filling meal.

I don't eat those because they aren't " real " sushi (to me). I prefer the rice and raw fish. Last night I had 11 pieces of nigiri (rice and raw fish) and 3 california rolls and I counted them individually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
