Steven is the best host you have, and he's quite hilarious. I also think it's funny that your team gives him the worst assignments - be a Grab driver for a day, climb around in people's dirty spaces to discover dangerous water heaters, try renting a car for a month during the rainy season, "Here Steven. See if this fish is okay to eat." :) Edit: You guys need to pay him more. He's driving the oldest car on the road by far.

In my younger days during the early 60s tapeworms were common parasites found in kids from that era. Most of us will have taken some medication where by you go to the toilet like having diarrhoea where by you past out stools, where by we will past out long worms. Tapeworms infection was common may be that why in 60s most of the kids were skinny.😂😂😂

Mebendazole 100 mg tablets (6 doses) are available at 7-Eleven in Thailand if you suspect you might need to de-worm after eating raw seafood.

@jim.pearsall Год назад

The cost for a pack of 6 tablets is only ฿35 (or almost US$1). Besides the name of the over-the-counter medication and pictures of 5 types of worms, there is no English, so here are the instructions: 1) for round worms - 1 dose (1 tablet); and 2) for other types of worms - 6 doses over 3 days (1 tablet every 12 hours), with a follow-up 7th dose 2 weeks later (I guess in case of eggs). 👍🏻

Interesting topic. I have read that the Japanese typically did not use local Pacific salmon for sashimi because it is prone to parasites. The Japanese began using Norwegian farm raised salmon because Norway promoted it and farmed raised salmon is parasite free.

@Der_Kleine_Mann 10 месяцев назад

I wouldn't be to sure about them actually being parasite-free, since I once watched a documentary about this specific norwegian farmed Salmon.

@qweqwe9678 6 месяцев назад

sad truth is, farming salmons in Norway is not only a digusting practice that destroys the environment, the fish themselves are very toxic (antibiotic, parasites, and whatnot) to human consumption. In asia, we have the impression that everything from the nordic countries are good and high quality. That can't be further from the truth.

Mr Steve Chia, Greetings & we watch this documentary investigation yesterday. Its a good informative documentary. Would like to pose the question of possible benefits (if any) of accompanying meals with moderate consumption of alcoholic beverages - if these may serve as a protection defence. We learnt that in Medieval Europe, wines were often accompanying meals (given that then water purification techniques were not as available & accessible) - leading to impression that wine was a "safe" beverage & "must have" with meals.. In Japanese culture - most Japanese would pair sushi, sashimi with sake (or beer). In Korean cuisines, beer &/or shochu. In mainland China, rice wine (or beer or grape wines too these days) - been an accompaniment with meals. Was wondering if there may be a latter investigation in this area. Of course, consuming alcoholic beverages in moderation are what are recommended & perceived "beneficial".

@hotspotzk Год назад

anisakis is pretty common for wild fish and mostly harmless but you will get bad stomachache, if you put your fish in the freezer for hours or days the anisakis will die by itself and safely to consume.

@aspiringmodernistchef Год назад

So here's the thing. Unless you like dry cardboard fish cooked to a core temperature of at least 63°C for 15 seconds to kill parasites, eating fish cooked to optimal textures like in high end restaurants require a much much lower temperature in the low 40°C. For example, salmon cooked at 43°C results in a very soft and buttery texture but at that temperature, bacteria grows the fastest and parasites don't die. So unless you like dry cardboard fish which is how most people cook their fish to (yucks), you might as well eat the fish raw. Therefore, the advice is really just get the freshest fish you can and eat it at whatever temperature you like. As such, deep freezing should actually be made mandatory instead of just a guideline; and if it's just a guideline, can we say SFA is strict?

lol....1stly salmon isnt a staple fish source from Japan, its Norway actually. But for it to be sent, its always or mostly deep-frozen, except for the farmed salmons which we have locally. 2nd, most food in Singapore are taken for granted 'good' and 'well-regulated' but its actually not. Cos if its a real regulation, it should applies to all companies nationwide, not leaving out any. Thus this is also why we got so many issues in this small country.

the wormy sahimi comes from a welll known japanese thrift shop. They can sell cheap because they source cheaply.

Next thing to worry about is the uncontrolled antibiotics used to kill parasites.

@YXL36 Год назад

It's antiparasitic agents that is used to kill parasites.. antibiotics are meant for bacteria only. Is ironic how the Singaporean stringent FDA will allow some companies to import farmed fish kept at only 4 degrees while their guideline recommended otherwise
