The crazy paradox?
The thing we all call wasabi barely contains a shred of actual wasabi at all.
Most of the green paste you eat with sushi isn’t made from real wasabi root. Instead, it’s usually a mixture of horseradish, mustard powder, starch, and green coloring, all produced in factories through controlled mixing, drying, and grinding processes.
And that strange story is not unique.
In this episode, Captain Discovery goes inside the factories to see how wasabi, condensed milk, and MSG are really made.
