“…Despite conclusive evidence about the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids found in especially fatty fish, consumer awareness and beliefs that fish are a good source of these nutrients or that these nutrients confer health benefits were found to be rather poor . It should be noted that fish may also be contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, viruses, toxins, chemical and other environmental hazards (Sumner and Ross, 2002). Recently, several studies concentrated on the question whether it is possible to follow dietary recommendations of eating two portions of fish a week, of which one should be fatty fish, without exceeding tolerable intakes of chemical environmental contaminants (Mozaffarian and Rimm, 2006;Sioen et al, 2008a,b;Smith and Sahyoun, 2005;.…”

“…The epidemiology of fish zoonoses is associated with sushi and sashimi because of inappropriate treatment of fish products during hunting and frozen storage (Öktener and others 2010). Sumner and Ross (2002) developed a scale to assess seafood risk assessment. According to this risk assessment of sea food hazard/product combinations, there is some risk of finding parasites in Austrian sushi/sashimi (Sumner and Ross 2002).…”

“…Sumner and Ross (2002) developed a scale to assess seafood risk assessment. According to this risk assessment of sea food hazard/product combinations, there is some risk of finding parasites in Austrian sushi/sashimi (Sumner and Ross 2002). The results showed that low levels of Pseudomonas spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacteriaceae members, E. coli, and Bacillus cereus were detected, and it was recommended that hygiene be improved at restaurants.…”

In recent years, a dramatic increase in the demand for ethnic foods in the United States has been observed. Interestingly, with their rise in popularity, more foodborne illness outbreaks associated with ethnic foods have also been reported. Despite a more than 200-y history of ethnic foods in the United States, there is a paucity of information about them. Furthermore, there is also a lack of research on food safety issues involving ethnic foods. Therefore, this paper provides a comprehensive overview of ethnic foods, including the history, types, popularity, characteristics, ingredients, and consumer attitudes toward them. Importantly, this review provides an analysis of the statistics of foodborne illness outbreaks associated with ethnic foods based on data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The breakdown of etiology of ethnic foods identified the number of total outbreaks, the causative microorganisms, the food vectors, and the locations where foodborne disease outbreaks have occurred. Also covered is a review of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system implementation, food safety training, and inspection score systems related to ethnic foods and how these can serve as effective tools for the prevention of foodborne illness outbreaks. This study contributes to the body of food safety literature by providing helpful information about ethnic foods in the United States.
