On: Up to the 1990s, raw salmon sushi was not eaten in...

Mostly a vegetarian diet here now, but what I miss the most is absolutely salmon. Red meat or white fish I don't crave, but that red salmon, mmmm.

But no, it's not "interesting" how your kid doesn't like it. It doesn't mean anything about the health about the product. Does your kid like candy?

Farmed salmon doesn't have the red colour we associate with salmon, and they add that colour later so that it looks right to us.

Interesting article. It seems to be saying that wild salmon are pink because of a pigment in their diet, but farmed salmon are only pink because of a pigment in their diet.

Indeed. Farmed ones aren't given the same diet. I suspect it's not as healthy for them either, but it does well enough for industrial purposes. Think of cattle feed v grass, etc

Treat yourself with a salmon! It's 2023!
