Guest guest Posted May 15, 2001 Report Share Posted May 15, 2001 Wild Pacific Salmon was one of the lowest ones listed, and Northeast Lake Salmon was in the " moderate " category.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2001 Report Share Posted May 15, 2001 Salmon comes from fisheries and is a large business. I think it is highly unlikely that salmon would be dangerous from that source. They are highly monitored. Sushi bars get it from fisheries, so we get our fish from them quite easily. It never smells as the Japanese know how to preserve fish better, I think - perhaps a temperature deal. When you can smell a fish, then it is not good to eat is generally the rule re: bacteria, etc. Minc [ ] Salmon > Hi Everyone, > > Is salmon one of the fish considered to be high in mercury?

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Oh yes! The Pacific Salmon are wonderful. In the three years I've been in the northwest, I have eaten more salmon than anything other protein. Now I only buy it fresh off the local boats or get it from fishing friends and family. We also are fortunate to get halibut fresh from the commercial fishermen, but this is only part of the reason I love my new home.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: salmon. If all else fails, canned Alaskan Sockeye salmon is wild caught, and a perfectly good substitute if it's hard for you to find fresh wild caught fish!

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 The rare rare occasion we have fish (1-2 times a year) it is vital choice salmon. Its a pity because we really do love fish.
