Photo of the Day: Furikake French Fries
What a great idea!! I love using furikake on just about everything. That's good stuff.

The one I have has MSG in it. Generally I try to avoid foods with MSG b/c it makes me extremely thirsty and sometimes I get headaches. I will look for ones without it.

I'm not sure which *bad* ingredients are of concern. The jars of fumi furikake that I buy contain only nori, sesame seed, salt, spices and sometimes sugar. Some varieties (seto, wasabi, shiso) also contain bonito, eggs, wasabi, and/or soy sauce.
A close friend of mine, who is Japanese, turned me onto this years ago, and I was hooked. The sodium content is high, but so are plain salt or shoyu. This way at least you're getting the seasonings and a little nori.
It's super delicious on scrambled tofu.

Although I do enjoy using furikake, I have to agree with blahthequah; furikake has a lot of bad ingredients in it along with the seaweed. I think the best bet, (though it will involve more work) is to take dried seaweed and sesame seeds, crumble it, and sprinkle it over whatever you need.
I must say that photo of the fries looks delicious with or without the furikake.

Furikake on veggies sounds good! Why didn't I think of that one before?

MMMmmmm... furikake... with rice... on buttered toast... on spam and rice... on soup... mmmmm... furikake... never thought of fries! MMMmmmm...
Wow. I just realized I'm completely out of furikake! How can that be? Oh yeah... 16-year-old son is obsessed with it. Especially on buttered toast... Must remember to buy more.
Oh.
Sorry. Carry on.

Maybe it will become the new condiment. Salsa did replace ketchup for a while but they say ketchup has now climbed back to #1 place.
I've also found that the individual snack packs of Paoin Nori (seasoned roasted seaweed) go over very well with most kids. We go through one of the containers that hold 100 pcs. every week or so. :)

furikake is the best! in hawaii, when you go to the movie theater, you can get popcorn, a package of furikake and a flat cardboard tray to mix it in. yum!

What a ridiculous idea. Isnt that just like salting your spinach or dipping or carrots in ketchup? Still, those fries look good.
