Yes it does but not all sushi has fish in it. "Sushi" is the art of the preparation and the presentation. Tamago, for example is a cooked egg omlet of sorts that is specially seasoned and placed on the formed rice ball in sushi preparation for what is called "nigiri" sushi. And not all sushi contains raw fish. The eel, or Unagi is cooked as is the shrimp. Sashimi is sliced raw fish. Sushi rolls or Maki sushi sometimes have vegetables only, cucumber, radish etc.

No, sushi does not have parasites in them. Unless they were using fish or meat that has parasites then that would be different. Be very careful as sushi's fish or meat is rarely cooked.

Do sushi have tapeworm?

Sushi does not have tapeworms in it. There are possible parasites in fish, but a well trained sushi chef will see the indications and not serve it. And tuna is always frozen solid to kill off any possible parasites.


Which kind of a raw tuna is suitable for sashimi and how can you recognize such a tuna in fishmonger's shop?

You need to go to a good fishmonger and request 'sushi grade' tuna. It will cost more than tuna you buy for cooking. Unless you have been trained on identifying sushi grade fish and know what parasites and imperfections to look for, leave it to the professionals. Another good source is to ask your local sushi shop where they buy their fish from.

Does eating sushi make you less likely to get food poison?

Probably not. In the United States, there have been several foodborne illness outbreaks due to eating sushi. Because sushi generally contains raw fish (some recipes do not), there is the possibility of exposure to bacteria and parasites that could make you sick. Many health departments discourage the consumption of raw fish. Some people feel that occasional exposure to disease-causing organisms will strengthen their immune system, but I could not find any data to support that with regards to eating sushi.
