Answer 1

Try thinly sliced strips of cucumber, zucchini or even carrots in place of nori:

Also try soy wraps:

Answer 2

Desi Chef is right even blanched spinach leaves, and in Delaware I would look for a Vietnamese store or a high end store like Whole Foods or Zabars.

Check the Yellow Pages for Asian Grocery stores or food outlets, it may mean a trip to Wilmington or an other state if on the border or outskirts, one word, rice paper keeps so you can buy a bit, just keep it in an air tight container or large Ziploc bag.

The taste will be fine, even experiment with funky western style dipping sauces for a kick.

Answer 3

If you go to Amazon.com, you can find soy papers.  It's a piece of edible paper made from soy to substitute nori.
