Fresh raw tuna, IMO, tastes sort of a lot like rare roast beef, only
fluffier, so you might like that, too. When I lived in MA, I knew of
a fish market that I could trust when I phoned to tell me whether their
tuna that day was fresh enough for sushi.
(BTW, the raw fish without the rice is sashimi)

Did you buy any of the cute little sushi making tools I see at the gourmet
food shop? I admit to being intrigued but haven't tried this yet as I don't
eat rice and I'm allergic to fish. I wonder if I could call ham and cheese
roll-ups 'Sushi' or would that be pushing it?

No. I sharpened a knife, sliced thin at an angle, rolled it up over the
ginger and it was just lijke at the Sushi restaurant, maybe even
fresher!

deep freeze a piece of raw salmon, unfreeze it, slice it, and eat with
a little soy sauce. Very tasty, costs a lot of money at restaurants,
and not that expensive.

Thanks for the suggestion Iggy,
I do not use soy products of any kind. they feed gut bacteria,
fostering overgrowth and interfering with the digestive function and
gut/ brain connection associated with Celiac disease and also autism,
Ulcerative Cilitis, IBD and Crohn's Disease.

LOL! That might be pushing it a tad, I think! :-) You can always do
non fish sushi -- try laying out a nori wrapper and spread a *very*
thin layer of wasabi in the middle. There you have your base. You can
add sliced pickled ginger, avocado, julienned cucumber, roasted red
peppers.... Whatever you like, pop it in there. I have even had a
variation on this with thin, very rare, roast beef. Roll, slice and
eat.
mmmmmmmmm roast beef.... (channelling Homer)

Actually, that sounds more like sashimi. : )
