WATCH: Jimmy Fallon Makes Blake Shelton Try Sushi For The First Time

 

If sushi weren’t so expensive, and if it wouldn’t give me mercury poisoning, I could realistically eat it five times per week and not get sick of it. It’s delicious, healthy, and fun, which is why I almost spit out my “rahs wahn,” or as I’ve come to know it, rice wine, when I learned that Blake Shelton has never had sushi before. Like ever. “Not the raw stuff,” at least.

Of course that had to be corrected, and who better to do it than Jimmy Fallon? On last night’s Tonight Show, Fallon and Shelton went to Nobu in New York City to eat all different types of sushi and drink a lot.

They start out with some sake, which Shelton says tastes like “easter egg coloring,” and ginger which he says has the “texture of pre-chewed gum.”
