California roll is one of the most popular sushi rolls in the world. Since typical sushi rolls are rolled in dried seaweed, many people who aren't used to eat dried seaweed tend to have hard time to bite sushi rolls. This is one reason that california rolls are made inside-out, so it's easy to bite.
