The curious story of how sushi became popular in America, plus what would happen to dogs if all of their humans disappeared?

And in their latest stunt, Hines says they've grown ketchup in Martian

conditions. Here are some of the cool things from the news today. So recently I talked about

the evolution of Chinese food in America, particularly those paper takeout boxes, which it turns out are not

Chinese at all, but evolved from oyster pails used in the northeastern U.S. Well, over the weekend,

there was an incredible piece in the New York Times about how sushi became popular in America,

and whoa, does it go places I wasn't expecting. So one thing to know off the bat is that sushi is not

originally Japanese, although it has been there for over a millennium. But before that, it seems to

have come from China or maybe somewhere else in Southeast Asia. It also used to be fermented and

wasn't popular in all parts of Japan for a very long time.

Sushi, as we would recognize it today, was mostly a post-World War II phenomenon in Japan,

a combination of a booming economy, scientific innovations in food, and the spread of urban cuisines

to the rest of the nation.

But it wouldn't be until the 80s that sushi caught on in America.
