Careful, some put additives in, like chlorine, to keep it fresh longer. It was quite prevalent in the past, perhaps less so now. I think if you buy it flash frozen you'd be OK but be wary of ppl selling it at those seafood stands or markets displaying it behind glass.

just be sure to rinse really well, and I recommend soaking it in RO/DI for a while before serving.
