Good Job keeping them Honest!

I too have disdain for farmed fish... I'm sure its not healthy to have "color added" to the product for consumption...

In 7th Grade we had a taste test between the two in Biology and a debate... Teacher did a good job cooking it up... but its not the same... Big identifier is at least Atlantic (not sure if its just farmed or Atlantic in general) have wider flakes of meat when compared to Pacific Wild.

Glad to see you postin' again too!
