Default north pacific ocean kayaker seeks advice on sashimi


wrote in message
...

Using a fork, I pulled the coiled up worms out and dropped them in the
sink.
After a few minutes they realized they were out and started moving
around. Gross!
I did not eat the cod raw.

That sort of thing can make a guy seriously reconsider this whole
sushi business.


This is why in Japan, people respect the "itamae".
And why it's a good policy to eat raw fish prepared by someone who knows
what they're doing.
That said, it's not like every fish you catch is filled with parasites.
Of the countless fish I've caught and prepared for raw consumption, I can
only
count may 5-6 tines that I found a worm and had to remove it.
I've probably seen more dead worms in packaged fish sold at supermarkets.
