Salmon as a GMO, how does one decide if it is safe to eat, safe for the environment and safe for other salmon. We could listen to the manufacturer, but really they are trying to sell the fish, and much more. How about the FDA, even they retuse to rule on this.

Worldwide Sustainable Seafood, Is It An Oxymoron

Not just in the USA but worldwide. I think the Seafood Industry needs a clear, concise and credible voice to the public.
