Better minds than mine will have to figure that one out! Most

of the worst mercury though is at the TOP of the food

chain, and shrimp is at the bottom. But, if they were

harvested in contaminated waters, it would be a problem.

In theory, farmed shrimp in clean water would be fine,

but it seems they don't feed farmed fish (or chickens)

very well sometimes.
