Toro is the term for the fatty part of the tuna, found in the belly portion of the fish. Toro is further broken up into two distinct subtypes, and they are more expensive due to their relative scarcity as a proportion of the entire fish.

The two types of toro are:

Chutoro, which is sometimes labeled chu-toro, is the belly area of the tuna along the side of the fish between the akami and the otoro. It is often preferred because it is fatty but not as fatty as otoro.

Otoro, which is sometimes labeled o-toro, is the fattiest portion of the tuna, found on the very underside of the fish. This cut is fatty almost to the point of falling apart and can literally melt in your mouth.

Why is the sushi fatty tuna called fatty tuna?

Because there are basically two types of what we westerners think of as 'tuna' in sushi, the lean cut of the fish, called 'akami' and the fattier part of the fish, cut from the belly region, called 'toro.' Tori is also graded up by the degree of fattiness, and can be referred to as 'toro,' 'chu-toro,' or 'o-toro.'
