[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1298671, member: 196898"] Fish is generally good for you, but there have been warnings about eating too much, Those especially marked out are Swordfish, and tuna due to mercury buildup. Recently, farmed salmon has had bad press, and shellfish can be dodgy if not fresh or allowed to detox before cooking. Trout can be a problem sometimes but recent methods of preparation and transport seem to have reduced the risks. Most of the don't eat this fish stories are linked to conservation issues and stock depletion, rather than health issues, but here is increasing evidence of pcbs replacing mercury in the chemical buildup category, especially where fish are caught close to river estuaries Edit to add: I forgot to mention that smoked fish is not the best to eat, but tasty in small doses. Modern curing methods add a lot of chemicals and colourants and these are a poor substitute for oak smoke. It is a time problem the manufacturers get around by spray painting the fish with a cocktail of makeup and smellies to fool the public. [/QUOTE]
