I hate horseradish. A lot of wasabi products here are stretched/substituted with common horseradish, but it doesn't come close to real wasabi.

Everytime I smell it, I have the urge to vomit. Doesn't happen with wasabi.

Wasabi, and I mean real fresh wasabi, taste incredible with sushi. (I have a sweet tooth though, so I never touch wasabi.)
I also have a sweet tooth, but I still like real wasabi.

Most wasabi found outside Japan is imitation. Congrats, you just tasted 1% of its true power.

I love wasabi. I even had wasabi icecream once. It was actually nice

Real wasabi only grows in flowing water and is extremely rare. Most "wasabi" is just horseradish mixed with mustard and dyed green.

I gave wasabi a try again. It came right back out (vomited) and looked the exact same. I guess its real secret power is that it's reusable.

Wasabi was designed to kill germs when you are eating raw fish. It's only after a long time after that that someone discovered that wasabi actually tastes nice with nuts. Wasabi is not supposed to be tasty as it is a disinfectant first and foremost.
