USA/THAI/PHILLIPINES rice is LONG GRAIN and have less sugar in them
Japanese rice is SHORT GRAIN and is usually fatter and stickier. ^^

As xYinniex said, Japanese rice is short grain. I use calrose rice, as that's easily available here in Canada. It was also recommended by a Japanese lady who makes the sushi for a supermarket here.

I wet my hands with water with a little rice vinegar (the straight stuff, not the ready-prepared sushi mixture with sugar and salt) added to stop the rice sticking to my hands too much.

Hi I always eat onigiri as a lunch and once I've eaten Yakiniku onigiri in Korea

IT WAS GREAT!

Uhh, I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I love onigiri, and I used to make it but I don't really have the time anymore.. so I was wondering is there anywhere in Canada (Toronto/GTA area?) that has it for sale? Or something?
If not, then I'll just quit being lazy and make some.

(I know it doesn't take much time and it's only lately I've been busy, but I'm just curious if there is a place or not if anyone knows.)

Grilled slices of SPAM pork luncheon meat. I like that for a change once in a while.
