She told her child that wasabi is made from Chinese horse-radishes while eating her California Roll. I don't know about her but I've never had wasabi with my Chinese food before. :confused:

Maybe she thinks all Asians are Chinese and know Kung Fu, as well. ;)

EDIT: We all knew it was Japanese and that Chinese wasabi didn't exist. Maybe this "Chinese wasabi" can be eaten with chicken fried rice. :D

is it just me or from what you described, did the lady never say that wasabi was chinese? she said it was made from chinese horshradishes....

i mean if you think that implies that wasabi is chinese, then you must also think hawaiian style pizza is canadian, because hey, it's made in part from canadian bacon!
