Question

i eat alot of sushi and raw fish, and im wondering if eating a lot give you food poisoning?

Answer 1

no i don't think eating raw fish gives u food poisoning bcause not ALL raw fish give you food poisoning since most of them are fresh and put in the right temperature however, some raw fish can give you food poisoning bcuz it has not been put in the right temperature plus it is too old + rotten so it is best to be careful when eating sushi!

Answer 2

If it's fresh and properly kept, no.

If it wasn't really fresh, then yes. Always buy sushi from reputable places with lots of customers.

Answer 3

It's not the amount that's bad for you, it's the quality.  For sashimi and sushi made with raw seafood, you want that fish to be fresh, good quality stuff.

Answer 4

If raw fish gives you food poisoning there will  be  no more restaurant in the world  that will serve them.Many cultures and tradition in the world that  doing it and adopted  by  many restaurants. ceviche from south America , sashimi from Japan , pesce cruda marinate from Italy ,kilawin isda from Philippines. Sometimes  the fish is poisonous  due to the  contaminated water from the area or  they had the red tide. Some fish was carrying  some toxic chemicals which they scavenge under  the sea like mercury.

I guess if the fish is bad quality. Always eat fresh and clean. Eat from a good and trusted restaurant. Eating a lot of raw fish is bad for you. I heard it's bad for your liver or something else. Eat some sushi that don't have any raw fish.

Answer 9

depends on how fresh the raw fish is and where it came from.

Answer 10

The biggest thing is the preparation of the fish. I eat sushi a lot, and its raw fish. However, I go to reputable restaurants where I know they are using sushi-grade fish and are properly preparing it. I have gotten food poisoning from a sushi restaurant that was new, and I never went back. I wouldn't recommend going to Kroger and buying raw fish to make sushi.

Not all the time, or there would be a lot of Yuppies getting food poisoning on a regular basis.
