Roll Sushi (maki-sushi)

At the farewell party for a friend of mine who left Rochester,
we got together in my dorm room and brought some foods with them.

Sushi in the picture is "maki sushi (or maki-zushi)".
Here in the U.S., I often see roll sushi lapped with rice and a sheet of seaweed in.
That is not the sushi seen in Japan. Well, I am just saying it, and certainly do not mean
what is right or wrong.
I think maki-sushi rolled with seaweed is like a hotdog. It just makes easy to grab and eat without chopsticks. In old days sushi was not supposed to be eaten with chopsticks.
or I should say, the style in eating sushi with chopsticks was not considered a cool way.

Two kinds of roll sushi in the pic are
eel and cucumber (upper left), and
crab meat and avogado(lower right).
