What it is

Sashimi grade is not a regulated term. It is a marketing term used to indicate that raw fish is high enough quality to be eaten raw, as in Japanese sashimi. This typically means the fish has been handled and frozen according to specific guidelines to kill parasites.

Why it's used

This term is used to market raw fish for consumption without cooking, most commonly in sushi and poke bowls. It assures consumers that the fish is safe to eat raw.

Health notes

As a marketing term, 'sashimi grade' does not have a regulatory status. The FDA recommends that individuals at higher risk for foodborne illness (e.g., pregnant women, older adults, young children, and those with weakened immune systems) avoid eating raw fish. Freezing fish according to FDA guidelines can reduce the risk of parasites.

Allergen info

Fish is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Sashimi grade fish is therefore a major allergen.
