Yep, rolls originally weren’t a thing in Japan. Sushi rolls started with the California Roll, which was invented in Little Tokyo, LA. Traditional Japanese sushi is just rice and fish, with freshly-grated Wasabi sandwiched in between.

rolls are a thing. it’s different though, with seaweed wrap on the outside, instead of rice. it’s called makizushi.

You might want to re-read my comment because I carefully worded it. I know that rolls are currently a thing in Japan.

i know what you meant. i was saying rolls started in Japan, it wasn’t invented by the American. The American just invented a specific style of rolls that have rice on the outside.
