If you've never had a particular type of sushi before, just have one piece of it. Some types of sushi are definitely an acquired taste, while others are only good in small amounts.
Sushi is good for some diets, horrible for others. For those allergic to wheat gluten, it can be a great thing as it doesn't have any, well, wheat gluten. For diabetics, however, it can increase blood sugar after just a few pieces.
For most people the best balance between salty and spicy is to combine one pearl of wasabi and one tablespoon of soy sauce, smashed together via chopsticks. Adjsut the amount as needed, of course.
If you are going to order pufferfish (fugu) make sure that the chef has been properly licensed. If it is not properly prepared, it can be very poisonous, leading to a hospital stay for varying degrees of paralysis, or even death.
If your supermarket has a sushi chef, take advantage of it It not only gives you access to a greater variety, but you also know that it's fresh.
