More Bad News for Farmed Fish Eaters: Intestinal Parasites


















Some Americans are getting nasty intestinal parasites from eating farmed Salmon. My recommendation for quite a while has been to avoid farmed fish in general, however many varieties of wild fish often have their own issues, too. Also, unless very certain of the source, I would caution against eating your fish raw. As a chef, i know that the best tasting salmon is not cooked to a well-done char- it ought be slightly rare in the middle, so more than anything this is a reminder to be wary of the waters that your fish come from. This article from Scientific American is definitely worth a read, and cautions against even wild river-caught salmon.

While looking into this issue further for this post, I also came across another brand new article on a new worldwide Salmon virus. My question is- are they selling this diseased salmon?
