QUICK POLL RESULTS: Fear of Farm Raised Salmon
Published on: January 31, 2004
A recent study recommends that to eat more than one eight-ounce portion of farmed salmon a month poses an unacceptable cancer risk for consumers. We ran a poll to see if this would affect the our reader's decision to buy farm raised salmon. Here are the results:
Which of the following best expresses your feelings about farm raised salmon? | I would not touch farm raised salmon; it is too dangerous. | 33% | | It has all been blown out of proportion; farm raised salmon is safe to eat. | 14% | | I will eat farm raised salmon in moderation. | 45% | | I do not eat salmon at all, farm raised or wild. | 7% |
When buying salmon do you ask if it is wild or farm raised? | Yes | 46% | | No | 22% | | I never thought to do that. | 31% |
When ordering salmon in a restaurant, do you ask if the salmon is farm raised or wild? | Yes | 38% | | No | 30% | | I never thought to do that. | 32% |
