2. Truth: SUSHI is actually one of the most successful practical jokes ever. |
|
It all started with a Japanese seafood resturaunt, a broken grill, and a lone waiter who managed to keep a straight face while he told the customers "It's supposed to be like that."
The word 'Sushi' itself comes from a colloquial Japanese term which loosely translates as "You're on" or "I'll take that bet".
As in: "Hey, I bet you I can talk these customers into eating this raw squid meat." "Ok, You're on! (Su-Shi)"
