I hate farmed salmon, and so should you
My dad is an oceanographer in Oregon and has done alot of research around salmon. My brother is a research tech up there, and has also been on a salmon boat out of Kodiak, Alaska. My friend Scott also has been involved in salmon research. So while I care alot about the food I eat in general, farmed salmon is particularly obnoxious to me. I was really happy when a law was passed that they had to add a sticker saying 'color added' for farmed salmon. Cause aside from polution from the extra fish food and concentrated fish droppings, the need for drugs to keep them healthy in restricted quarters, and driving down the price for real fish, farmed salmon looks like crap without food coloring! There's a nice little article in the Oregonian about how the fish farms in Chile are having trouble. Good.
