I compared the English sushi page with the Japanese sushi page. I thought it would be interesting to see if there were any differences between a familiar language's take on the food and where it comes from.

The English article is fairly well-written with a lot of information. Both the Japanese and English articles feature sections that discuss the types of sushi, its history, and health and nutritional concerns. The Japanese article differs in that it talks about the sale of sushi and discusses the economy of sushi sales in Japan. The Japanese article also talks about the cultural impact of sushi in relation to art, music, and literature, which the English article has nothing about. Also, one major cultural difference between the articles is that the English article also has a section about sushi "etiquette", talking about what is appropriate for eating sushi in relation to traditional Japanese culture.

I think the comparison of these two articles is pretty close to what I was expecting. I actually wasn't even expecting the English article to have as much content as it did. --Eng395jy (talk) 16:43, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
