If you are one of those people who says “I don’t like fish” or “I don’t eat fish”…I say to you, “Get over it!” Fish is an excellent source of protein, low in fat, and there are a million ways to cook it. So join the 21st Century and Google some yummy fish recipes ASAP!
Here is the 411 on fish. Salmon should NEVER EVER be farmed. It is SO BAD for you!!!! (you can Google that too) All of your salmon should say “Alaskan wild”. There are some fish that you can buy farmed, and it is ok…but please do not buy farmed in China fish…icky, yucky! Here are the rules I follow:
Tilapia = U.S. farm-raised
Salmon = Alaskan wild
Tuna = Albacore
Catfish = U.S. farm-raised
Shrimp = U.S. farm-raised
Cod = U.S. Pacific-caught
Halibut = U.S. Pacific-caught
