Wasabi Snooters

I am of the opinion that "Jackass" has merit. Great drama involves great tension: Will Hamlet kill his uncle? Will Godot ever arrive? Will Johnny Knoxville survive the fall when he pole vaults over a perilous ledge? Such is the magic of theater. (Or, in this case, television).Tonight, flipping through the channels, I stumbled upon "Jackass: The Movie." Kismetically, the scene I encountered was food related. I have never seen "Jackass: The Movie" and I didn't really know what I was in for.Johnny and his pals are at a sushi bar in Japan(?) and the title card reads: "Wasabi Snooters."One of Johnny's friends gets a big bowl of wasabi and starts mixing it with soy sauce."Oh boy!" I laughed knowingly. "He's going to eat all that wasabi! That guy is going to eat an entire bowl of wasabi!"Then, after stirring it together, he began layering the soy-soaked wasabi onto a metal tray."Why is he doing that, I wonder?" I wondered.Much like Ray Liotta in Goodfellas, he scraped the wasabi into a line."What in heavens--?"And then he snorted it."He WHAT?"Snorted it."I don't believe you."Dude, watch your TV."He----oh my word."Apparently, snorting wasabi leads to rapid shaking of the head and vomiting. And for those of you requesting Amateur Gourmet feats of strength, the answer is NO.
