    hi, thanks, though I did google for a good while before posting
    ' sushi originated from which asian country '
    & found these plus some others..,

    Early history.
    The original type of sushi was first developed in
    Southeast Asia and spread to south China before
    being introduced to Japan sometime around the 8th century.
    Fish was salted and wrapped in fermented rice,
    a traditional lacto-fermented rice dish.

    Although in today’s society you will find
    Sushi served most often in a Japanese restaurant,
    it actually dates back to 7th Century China.
    As a way of preserving fish,
    the Chinese people started making Sushi but without
    modern day refrigerators,
    they used the natural process of fermentation.
    To complete the Sushi-making process,
    only rice and salt were needed.
    The result was delicious fish,
    causing Sushi to grow in popularity.

    as I've always said though PDYOR & peeps can find/enter
    which answer they think.

    Also from wikipedia:
    Sushi (すし, 寿司, 鮨?) is a type of food preparation originating in Japan,
    Go figure.

    To add to the confusion, Thailand is part of Southeast Asia. I wish they made the answer a bit less ambiguous. At least its multiple entry so you could always submit a different answer each time you enter
