# Sushi Tattoos 5 Body Designs That Leave Your Skin Raw By Cowbag | Published 2009-03-04 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sushi-tattoos-designs-that-leave-your-skin-raw References: [trendhunter](http://www.trendhunter.com) There simply must be something fishy going on as I thought the web would be drowning in [sushi tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tattoo-design-platforms), but I was proved sadly wrong. The ones I did find were real corkers though, and there is no confusing the ‘I Love Sushi” design, although I can’t help but wonder how many jokers ask them what their favourite foods are. The [nigri with wings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-tattoo-generator2) clearly also confused the heck out of me. I have no idea of the thought processes that led that person to decide he wanted to be branded with that for the rest of his life, and you know I am happy for it to stay that way.
