Podcast from Trevor Corson on how eating sushi in the US is changing:
“A QUIET REVIVAL of authentic Japanese sushi is under way in the U.S., and it contains the seeds of a revolution that could make eating sushi both more enjoyable and more ecologically sustainable. But this trend is easy to miss, because the new face of sushi isn’t always Japanese, or even Asian. ”

It took them over 1 month to privately annotate the videos before publishing it publicly!
