Were you trying to be condescending or just snarky and unhelpful? Either way, good job.

The Pennsylvania Dutch are descendants of German immigrants who spoke a few varieties of related dialects from a part of southwestern Germany called the Palatinate (Pfalz). They can be of a variety of religions such as Lutheran, Reformed, Mennonite, and even Amish. So while the Amish are Pennsylvania Dutch, By no means are all Pennsylvania Dutch followers of the Amish religion.

Just buy Albacore which is great.

Albacore has higher mercury than Chunk Light.

That's the entire point. You proved you can google...so I'll just assume you were trying to be helpful.

I like wild caught Alaskan Sockeye Salmon for that reason. Think it tastes a lot better too. Although it is twice as much.

Yep - the processed celery, carrots, potatoes, beets, bananas, etc. are the real culprits .

There are still plenty of Amish in PA. My friend lives in Lancaster. She likes to complain about the buggies slowing up traffic. Are the people who show up at Reading Terminal Market in Philly and regional farmer's markets wearing black, blue, purple and funny head gear a bunch of posers?
