No one likes horseradish but everyone's gaga for wasabi. And wasabi expensive and rare. And they taste similar, somewhat. Apparently. I don't know. Never had wasabi, probably. Maybe once or twice in unexpected places. So the logical conclusion is obvious for capitalism to take care of it, so they market all the horseradish products as 'wasabi'. Still so good.
I used to have a jar of horseradish sauce that I bought from the dollar store, that was the first time I tasted the root, and for an entire year I put it on everything -- my sandwiches, my dips, every thing that it'd be sensible to put horseradish on. As of late though it's been only on snacks and sushi.
Ordered a can of horseradish 'wasabi' peas last week, now ordered three more because everyone likes them so much. I think they're just fine, too much peas not enough 'wasabi'.
