The FDA has discovered a virus outbreak in Chilean salmon. There is no information that this salmon is dangerous, and no one who consumes this salmon should be harmed. Thity percent of America's salmon is impoted from Chile, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The outbreak has been covered for approximately two years, salmon from Chile have been injected with chemicals and hormones not approved by the FDA. If distrust in fish farming continues, consumers will eventually catch on and make a switch to wild salmon. Even though there is no evidence of health concerns in farmed salmon, it is safer to stick to wild salmon. Along with an ease of mind, wild salmon is found to carry more omega-3's than farm raised, which is greatly benefical for the consumer's heart health.
