Outside of frozen fish gets trimmed before defrosting. Those things are frozen solid, hence that guy using industrial saw to cut it. Also frozen fish is different grade, look at the care they take with fresh fillet, wipe the blade, couple different knifes, no throwing.

japanese are a bunch of lucky people. Every thing is so fresh and so tasty!

With tuna that big i think i will eat sashimi all day!

thanks of the upload!

It’s where the gill plate used to be. they removed it and took out the gills, hence a giant hole encrusted with ice.

Hmm, thats a good point.

But, the floor is dirty, with dirt and shoe scum, which hopefully can be washed off the skin of the tuna or is discarded when the tuna is skinned.

The human hand has oils and bacteria. and disease. could that be the answer?

Wow !!

yeah i really don’t get that either

Japan is full of irony and contradictions. Look at it this way, if you had a shiny new black Porsche, would you mind strangers touching it and putting their fingerprints on it?

lol…it does make you wonder why they say and do something different….haha

i understand no one should touch the tune with their dirty hands but they have them laying on a dirty floor…could someone explain why?

It’s not jap. It’s Japanese, jp, jpn, or jpnse. “Jap” is derogatory.

my jap teacher told me they banning tourist coz some tourist took a photo of his friend sitting on a tuna which was worth couple thousand bucks x.x

i want a giant tuna soo bad : D

i was actually surprised that it didnt smell

how could someone touch one through the screen, you must work for cnn.

Can’t touch the fish for sanitary reason LOL….. these guys pulling the fish along the floor all over the place……

Wow, they really don’t waste any of it at all lol
