In reply to farmed fish...what i have read but cannot verify.., posted by joebob on December 8, 2003, at 12:05:40

I've been eating farmed salmon. Finding out who the grocery store's suppliers are is not easy. I want to call the supplier and ask what they feed the fish.

Reading on the net, I read some of the farms use grain and some use fish. If they feed them fish, then the content is good. I couldn't find any estimates of how much omega-3 is the grain-fed fish. I did find a nice editorial saying it is time for labeling standards. I think so, too.

A month or two ago, I read a positively scary New York Times story on their website. I think it was linked from a post here, but I really don't remember for sure. The report said not to eat the farm-fed salmon, and if you do–don't eat it more than once a month because of the poisons in it. I was eating it three times a week at the time and am pretty conflicted about starting it again.

Anyone know anything else?
