the great salmon scam

According to Simopoulos, wild salmon living in their natural environment of rivers, lakes and oceans feed on smaller forage fish, algae and seaweeds -- good sources of omega-3s. Most commercial salmon feeds contain about 45 percent fish meal and 25 percent fish oil. Depending on market prices, the fish meal contains forage fish or poultry by-products (even feathers) and blood meal, with grains such as corn, soy and wheat used as a binder or filler. In addition, Consumer Reports has noted that half of the U.S. soy crop and one-third of the corn crop were genetically modified -- a shock to those who believe such foods are dangerous.
