seaweed for easter dinner?

We went to a Japanese Easter church service today and afterwards attended the lunch that had been prepared (where the men and women sat separately). At each place setting was a small bento (boxed lunch) which included an egg salad sandwich, ham sandwich, cold chicken nugget-like balls, a couple cold potato wedges, and yes, seaweed wrapped around rice. We also found wasabi in the sandwiches. It was...interesting. Definitely not my first Easter away from home, and not even my first Easter in another country, but I would have to say that it was the first Easter that I really longed for a "real" Easter dinner.
