It's an assortment of raw veggies that are marinated in fish sauce and rolled in ricepapers. I have never used fish sauce and I was wandering if there was something I could use instead?? If I use the fish sauce, does anyone know of a mild variety?? Thanks

You can soften the pungency by adding sesame oil. Round out the flavor with a little sweet chili sauce. This is the basic recipe for the marinade used to pickle the carrots and daikon used in Vietnamese spring rolls.

Sesame oil ... is this the "toasted" sesame oil which is quite strong and dark or regular sesame oil?

For quite some time; most of the Chef's I know refer to this ingredient as "Liquid P....y"
But you should not be afraid of the stuff....In small doses it adds a acrid, salty flavor and will meld with citrus very well!
