- Why is it important to clean fish before cooking? Cleaning is important for two main reasons, the prevention of food poisoning and the reduction of spoilage. Bacteria that cause food poisoning are for the most part transferred to the fish, mainly from human beings, during processing, but occasionally some may be present on the fish when caught.
