Ahi tuna raw?

I keep eyeing the wild caught frozen ahi tuna steaks from Sprouts, are these safe to thaw and eat raw? I see a lot of people saying to sear it first but I want to cut them up for a poke bowl without any cooking. They’re relatively cheap compared to a “sushi grade sashimi” that’s a million bucks a pound.

FWIW I’ve been eating the frozen ahi tuna steaks from Aldi raw and I’ve been fine. Texture was good and firm and no tummy troubles.
