depends on the sushi you have. Sushi is really dependent on quality and freshness, where as other things can be masked in the cooking process so it really depends. Also it depends on what type of sushi you get, there is maki, nigiri or inari (there others but these are the most associated with sushi) Nigiri is my personal favorite, its usually some slice of fish/seafood sashimi style with a little wasbi on top of sushi rice. On the note taht its spicy and sour, well the rice is cooled down with rice vinegar which gives the rice a sweet and sour taste, and if its nigiri the a little wasbi is put on the back of the fish to hieghten the flavor of the fish. In maki which is typically rolled with nori(dried seaweed) only vegetables/fish/egg omelete/ are added and no seasonings are added.
