I enjoy eating a fair amount of fish from the Pacific. From sushi to tuna steaks. I have not started glowing in the dark yet.

When there was a super scare of Guam and mercury back in the sixties, the price hit a full story below rock bottom. My mother bought a closet full.

It didn't hurt me none.

I thought she bought a closet full of Guam. What would that cost to ship?

I had mussels and wild caught gulf shrimp Sunday for dinner. Was simple and good. But shrimp were pricey. Mussels seem to be a comparative bargain - great flavor, easy to cook, and seemingly low risk.

a hint on avoiding bad stuff in fish, eat the little ones. The big ones accumulate the toxins. Hence tuna and sharks and swordfish tend to have higher concentrations of toxins than say mackerel, anchovies or sardines.

Or so I believe, but what do I know?

well CBS won the lawsuit and it is still not used in the USA, whether you can get to the toxic dose is another question.
