Not salmon, and esp not shrimp...too many reasons to list.

My body and health are very valuable to me...yesterday my beloved neighbor, 57, who
really does live on processed, microwaved, white food and soda was told he has Lymphoma.
I cried like a baby, he was so scared.
The only vegetable he eats that is whole and real are potatoes.
Bottom feeders have almost no mercury in them, compared to the top-predator fish people like to eat, like Tuna. Just sayin' -- there are advantages to the bottomfeeder lifestyle.

They are marketing something called rock shrimp now in the Midwest. A few years ago I had never heard of it. Turns out it was once considered a trash crustacean but someone figured out how to make money off of it.

I KNEW there was a good reason I did not like shrimp. Or much other seafood, for that matter.

Cold water shrimp (North Atlantic) tastes the best in my opinion, I have not had the PNW type, but I bet it is good,too.

If your shrimp is eaten smothered in spicy curry or rolled in breadcrumbs and deep fried, I guess it doesn't matter, but with a splash of lemon and dill, it better be good.

If you raise it it would not be wild caught.
