- therealdrag0 4y agoMost Americans eat farmed pigs, so I guess they can eat Norwegian farmed salmon! Problem solved :)

- therealdrag0 4y agoI wasn’t defending it. I’m just saying (short term) converting the median eater, who doesn’t care about pig welfare, to factory farmed salmon will be easier and more environmentally impactful than trying to make them vegetarian.
- vegardx 4y agoIs it any different from other farmed fish? And what is the danger here?
- philliphaydon 4y agohttps://youtu.be/RYYf8cLUV5E https://youtu.be/RYYf8cLUV5E Many documentaries and stories about it. In singapore my daughter LOVED salmon so we only bought NZ King Salmon.
- vegardx 4y agoThis guy has made wild claims forever, never backed up with actual reproducible science. I'm not going to pretend that farmed fish isn't without its problems, especially for the environment, but dangerous to eat, no.
- philliphaydon 4y agoThere was a report in the EU in 2017 or 2018 which suggested reducing intake of farmed salmon as a result of the study. It isn't 1 guys claim. Not only that there's a noticble taste difference between NZ King Salmon and Norwegian Farmed Salmon.
- vegardx 4y agoI don't doubt that there are differences in taste. There are tons of different types of salmon. That said, I somehow question why you think farmed fish would be that much different in NZ or Norway. Both countries have a huge fishing industry. I can only comment on the sources that you actually provide. The last time this guy was in the news was because he attacked mobile senders with an axe because of some idea about electromagnetic radiation was causing all kinds of health issues.
