Francesca,

I've heard reference to canned salmon a few times now since joining the list.

Is there something more to salmon being canned or does fresh or smoked salmon

do the same job? Is it just a price issue, as I'm sure canned is cheaper? I'm

trying to avoid xenoestrogens in canned foods, so I eat a lot of fresh

salmon/tuna.
