Now this is coz of Relativity and the egg heads say yes it all works out like that.

Now what the **** does that mean?

Did you know .....
Salmon flesh is pink because of the crustations that the salmon eat, so I was told yesterday.

So how does farmed salmon get pink flesh? Pink coloring is added to the food that the salmon are fed. Its all smoke and mirrors guys....

As well, some farmed salmon from europe are so toxic from the water and feed that they are only recommended to eat less than once a month!!

I learned a ratio of food to growth in old highschool biology that I think went like this: 1 lb of growth for every 10 lbs of food consummed per fish .

Keeping that in mind . . . please consider the "food" that farmed fish are fed . Most of the chow to these poor fish come from other fish . . . but much of that is from the waste products of the fish that are slaughtered . Now, that includes all the organ meats . The problem is that the great filter of any animal is the liver, and that's a depository of the toxins that an animal eats .

So . . . . . . . . and here's the bad part . . . . . . . eating farmed fish is eating the entrails of other deceased fish and with the ratio of 10:1, the concentrations of toxins into the fish you eat is many many times the normal .

That's the real reason to NOT EAT farmed fish for too many meals a year .
