Accepted Answer

Sushi started ~700 CE in Southeast Asia as a way to preserve fish in fermented rice — the rice was thrown away, only the fish was eaten. Only in the 19th century, in Tokyo, was the rice eaten alongside as fast food ("nigiri").

Sushi begon ~700 n.Chr. in Zuidoost-Azië als manier om vis te bewaren in gefermenteerde rijst — de rijst werd weggegooid, alleen de vis werd gegeten. Pas in de 19e eeuw, in Tokio, werd de rijst meegegeten als snel-eten ("nigiri").
