Obama Sushi - New Food for Those Who Can't Get Their Fill of Obama (VIDEO)
New Food for Those Who Can't Get Their Fill of Obama

Kawasumi-Sensei, a sushi chef who teaches at Tokyo University, wanted to honor Barack Obama. Since he’s a sushi chef, he decided to do so in sushi. After much trial and error, he came up with a result he was proud of, complete with ears.

Brown rice is used for the skin, black sesame seeds for the hair, tiny shrimp for the lips, and fish paste for that winning smile.

The Obama sushi is at about marker 1:27 in the video above.

Kawasumi-sensei's masterpiece features, in addition to a startlingly realistic pair of Obama futomaki rolls, a variety of nigiri-zushi and futomaki that together must cost any purchaser a hefty chunk of change - we can believe that! But while the cars and happy faces are undeniably cute, it's the Obama sushi that are the highlights. (inventorspot)
