The whitish fish with the pinkish crust is Pollock which is notoriously infested with parasitic anisakis worms. Similar tasting fish species are available but the OU had Belsky manufacture a heter to allow fressing the worms so that they don't lose the income $$$ on several popular fish species. The seaweed between the rice & stuffing is also notoriously infested with miniature seahorses. It's easy to substitute soy paper or rice paper but again the OU doesn't want to lose $$$ on a category and some selfish fressers will whine that they davka want their infested seaweed.
