Did the fish in the restaurant have parasites?

Recently: Parasites were eaten in the fish, and the person in charge of the restaurant said that it was a fish tendon swallowed in one bite.

On the evening of August 15, Ms. Huang and her friends from Nantong, Jiangsu Province, went to the "Furnace Fish" restaurant on South Street for dinner, and they ordered a signature Mekong Fish. Halfway through eating, they found an object resembling a parasite in the fish.

When Miss Huang saw this "parasite", she felt sick in her heart, so she called the waiter to theorize. The waiter explained that it was fish tendon, but Miss Huang and her friends did not believe it, and they insisted that it was a parasite. The two sides were at a stalemate, and the person in charge of the restaurant rushed over.

At first, she said it was fish tendon, then changed her words to bean sprouts, and then said that it was fish tendon sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning, and finally did not give a reasonable explanation.

In desperation, Miss Huang found a real fish tendon for comparison, and found that the difference between the two was obvious. At this time, the person in charge of the restaurant suddenly ate the foreign object himself, and said that it was not a bug while eating. Miss Huang and her friends were shocked and did not pursue any further.

The restaurant apologized and gave them a 10% discount on the original price.

The waiter said that it was not the first time that customers had taken fish tendons for parasites, and that the same situation had been encountered at other branches. After the first time a customer reported it, the head chef of the restaurant took the "parasite" for identification, and the identification results showed that the foreign body was a fish tendon, not a parasite.

The waiter explained that among the several types of fish sold in the store, only grass carp has no tendon, and there are other kinds of fish, and the Mekong fish that Miss Huang and her friends ordered that day is one of them.

In general, there may be parasites in the abdominal cavity and under the scales of fish, which must be cleaned and cooked at high temperatures before being edible. However, try not to eat raw fish and seafood, as parasites can affect your health when they are ingested into your abdomen.

It is a parasite, this fish should not be eaten, it is not excluded that it has an effect on people. My family's fish pond used to have this diseased fish, but the fish that have not been infected can still be eaten with confidence. It must be that the fish medicine is not sprinkled in place, just like people will get sick if they are not immune, and so are fish.

Some Cantonese people are accustomed to using freshwater fish for sashimi, while liver flukes are usually parasitic on freshwater fish. Liver flukes are transmitted to the human body through raw freshwater fish or undercooked fish and shrimp. If you eat raw fish or undercooked fish or shrimp meat with liver fluke eggs, after about a month, it can develop into melon seed-like adults in the liver leakage and collapsed bile ducts.

Liver fluke infection usually requires two conditions. Liver flukes enter the human body through the digestive tract, that is to say, "disease enters through the mouth"; Secondly, liver flukes will parasitize the muscles of freshwater fish, shrimp and snails during the infection stage.

People don't notice that in fact, parasites are also present in many fish. The following is the popular science knowledge that I introduced to you about parasites in fish, I hope it can help you.

Can fish eat parasites on it

As long as it is steamed, the parasite will die, and it will not affect it, so don't worry.

Usually carnivorous marine fish will have nematodes in their stomachs, which is caused by these fish eating the eggs of other organisms or organisms in the sea, these parasites are a little harmful to the health of the fish, but as long as the belly of the fish is cleaned, it can be eaten with confidence after cooking. In addition, Professor Fung reminded that in the hot summer weather, the public is advised not to eat raw fish and seafood as much as possible, as some small parasites hidden in the meat will affect people's health after being eaten into the human abdomen.

Salmon eaten raw is prone to parasitic diseases, is this true or false?

In fact, not only cod, but also most deep-sea fish, freshwater fish and all kinds of seafood and aquatic products have a large number of parasites in their bodies!

There is now growing evidence that raw food is the most important cause of infection in humans with fish parasites. The rumor circulating on the Internet that "eating raw salmon is prone to parasitic diseases" is actually not a rumor.

Some international research data show that some marine fish, such as salmon, salmon, herring, etc., are infected with 80% to 85% of anisakis worms, that is, 8 out of 10 salmon may be infected by parasites!

For larvae, eating sashimi dipped in wine, vinegar or wasabi is useless!

At minus 20 degrees Celsius, most of the parasites may have died, and there is basically no harm to people, but it cannot be ruled out that adult parasites may produce larvae in the fish, which are much more resistant to frost than adults!

This larvae are not only frost-resistant, but also extremely self-defensive, and many people like to dip a little wine, vinegar or wasabi when eating sashimi in an attempt to kill the parasites in the meat, but in fact, this is also doing useless work!

From this point of view, the best way to prevent fish parasites is to refuse to eat raw, whether it is marine fish, seafood or freshwater fish, freshwater aquatic products, high temperature is the most effective way to kill the parasites in their bodies. Generally speaking, heating to 60 degrees Celsius will kill most of the parasites, and heating to more than 100 degrees Celsius for 2 minutes will ensure that all larvae are killed!

At present, for raw food products such as sashimi and sashimi, there is no unified food safety standard in China, and some local food safety standards have begun to pay attention to this problem, such as the food safety standards of Jiangsu Province revised last year, which stipulate that three parasite indicators will be tested for raw aquatic products, and it is clearly stipulated that flukes, nematodes, and tapeworms shall not be detected in sashimi.

Sashimi is parasitic with a variety of fish-derived parasites such as Clonorchis sinensis, which can lead to hepatocyte necrosis and induce liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.

According to Lin Jinxiang, vice chairman of the Expert Advisory Committee on Parasitic Diseases of the Ministry of Health, eating sashimi and shabu fillets is easy to be infected with Clonorchis sinensis parasitic disease, which will cause gallbladder inflammation and biliary blockage, thereby causing liver cell necrosis and inducing liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.

Eating sashimi can also be infected with parasitic diseases such as Paragonimus heteromorphaceae, Trematodes Echinocanaceae, and Clonorchis orientalis. The consumption of sashimi is mainly in the coastal areas of Guangdong, and the number of cases of infection with Clonorchis sinensis due to the consumption of sashimi has increased significantly.

According to reports, eating sashimi and undercooked fish can also be infected with jaw mouth nematode disease. After entering the human body, the jaw nematode will migrate everywhere in the internal organs, causing fever and local lumps, and burrowing into the organs will cause serious lesions. Cases of jaw nematode infection have more than tripled nationwide.
