Whether you can eat a fish in sashimi or not is a criterion whether the fish is fresh or not. I know but...
As I've been working in a fishery section in a department store, oftentimes I am asked by a customer about fish.
A writer doesn't know about fish well.
Today I was asked by a middle aged lady, 'Can I eat this fish in raw?' She was pointing out a pacific saury. 'No' I said with strngth, because I thought she was asking whether to be able to eat it from a head as it is in a raw. She asked again changed the expression. 'Can I eat this in sashimi? Sashimi means sliced fillet in rawfish. So i said 'It's OK, you can eat it in raw I mean in sashimi.' She asked me again, 'What did you thought when I said whether I could eat it in raw.' 'I thought you were asking whether you could eat it from the head without cooking.'
