aside from the actual toxicity information the rest of this video fear mongering mostly
>they do a double take on finding out fish pulp is used not only in fishsticks but also pet food as if petfood is toxic
the claims at being the most toxic food in the world are also fairly laughable, soon enough they'll be farming fish that are fed on farmed fish
notably Mahi Mahi have been a big research effort

it's unfortunate that most of the fish we really enjoy are carnivorous fish, aside from the occasional mouse our regular domestic farm animals don't eat any meat so their toxicity, as well as parasites, build up remains fairly low

the biggest issue I think is that these fish which are being farmed in conditions that increase their toxicity are ones normally regarded as very safe, or even promoted as a super food by years and years of media based on snippets of truth
while conversely, the ones that are competing are attacked constantly like tilapia
the whole asian fish farm vs civilized world fish farm shit is something else entirely though and mostly destroyed tilapia's reputation for a few years

well that's probably because it's not salmon, it's tuna
these images that crop up on social media are all about clickbait and half truths.
if you look at actual farmed vs wild the colour is slightly paler because farmed has more fat
but nobody can tell me I don't know the difference between two of the most important fish
look at how the layers seperate
