Overseas Edition - Israel fears sushi shortage after Japanese earthquake

After the devastating earthquake in Japan, Israel has admitted to fears that they may run out of sushi.

"There may be a shortage of sushi components, but we are still studying the situation," says Dudi Afriat of the Rakuto Kasei company, which imports the Kikkoman soy sauce, as well as seaweeds, wasabi, rice and other necessary ingredients for sushi rolls.

"My only fear is that they'll have to import Kikkoman from the US, and that will affect the imports to Israel... After the tsunami I received phone calls from hysterical people fearing a shortage of Kikkoman."

Glad you guys have your priorities straight.
