About a month ago (my timeline could be off bit) the news was reporting
that farm raised salmon were less healthy for humans than wild salmon; I
don't recall if it was a heart disease report, or something else.

If I recall correctly it had something to do with the amount of fat
contained in farm raised salmon.

I wonder (sorry-no cites available) if it's related to the food they're
given. After all, you don't hear much about wild salmon eating cows.


PCB's are stored in the fat, and farm raised salmon will have more fat,

I have been buying farm raised shrimp, but am now concerned about all
farm raised fish. Damn all of you.
