    I forgot that dragon roll is a real thing for a second, and thought that the joke was implying eating dragon is vegan.

    Also, doesn’t a dragon roll usually have shrimp in it?

      There was opportunity in there for a far better and wackier joke, but instead we get a watered-down veganism joke and a jab at an annoying parent’s habits that the artist will regret hating one day.

      In my experience it’s eel that’s the ‘dragon’. Although one place around here has fucking chicken in it.

        The dragon rolls I’ve seen considered of shrimp tempura and avocado topped with unagi. The eel is the dragon, while the shrimp provides a tail.

        I guess that if dragons are related to dinosaurs chicken is about as close as you can get.

        People always talk about pineapple on pizza (I don’t approve either), but I think cheese in sushi is even worse. It just ruins it.

        Shredded tuna too. I love fish sushi, but I’d take a veggie one over a roll filled with cooked, shredded tuna. It doesn’t work.
