Dont be afraid to ASK when youre eating out, where is this fish from? I inquired about shrimp from Baja last nite, & it was from Peru, which has better farming standards than Asia. Note: Tho, info is conflicting regarding Pacific caught fish, one company tested and this was their finding in Alaska: We sent samples of King Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, and Albacore Tuna to SGS Laboratories to be tested for Sr-90, because those species migrate the furthest west toward Japan. None of these fish habitually migrate further west than one thousand miles east of the nuclear plants, and usually stay much further away. However, Sr-90 would be more concentrated in currents flowing from northeastern Japan (the area of the leaks) to the U.S. and Canadian West coasts, so testing for Sr 90 seemed prudent. The consensus scientific view has been that the radiation leaked from Japan poses no risks to consumers of seafood that (like our species) do not migrate close to Japan. And our latest test results, which detected no Sr-90, support those expert scientific estimates.
