INTERNATIONAL SUSHI DAY
the first year it was celebrated was in 2009. International Sushi Day was created for one simple reason – to encourage all around the world to eat and love more sushi. Fun fact: Southeast Asians developed the original type of sushi, which consisted of fish wrapped in souring, fermenting rice. The dish then spread to southern China before reaching Japan.
IDEAS::
*Have a “Sushi” team Zoom session, support your local sushi shop
*Get people to make sushi at home and share their creations online – for the chance to win a prize or perhaps a lesson from a local sushi chef?!
