Seafood Guide Questions
The data comes from Food & Water Watch, a reputable food and water safety advocacy organization in Washington DC. They routinely come out with recommendations on fish safety including which fish are safe to eat, which ones are sustainable and more. This app hopes to capture the essence of their hard work.
Fish data is segmented into six categories on the main view. You simply tap on the category your interested in and it will return those fish. You can then drill into the fish items to get more information about the fish as well as recommendations and the ability to share with a friend.
The species on this list get a big thumbs down for failing to meet two or more of our criteria for safer and more sustainable seafood. For instance, imported farmed shrimp is linked to potential contamination, environmentally problematic farming methods and negative socio-economic implications for coastal communities. Open-water farmed salmon is also raises concerns in each of these categories. Bluefin tuna, a wild-caught species, raises major red flags in two areas: the status of the stock is very low due to international overfishing and it is associated with high levels of mercury contamination.
More than 100 types of fish and shellfish were evaluated to create the only guide assessing not only the health and environmental effects of eating certain seafood, but also the impacts on coastal and fishing communities. Our guide recommends safer, more sustainable options based on your personal tastes and priorities.
Seafood is one of the major foods linked to foodborne illness. And it’s not just things like bacteria that could make eating seafood a concern, but also the drugs or other chemicals used to produce some farmed fish. The growing share of imported seafood that we consume is of particular concern because much of it comes from industrial-scale fish farms. Less than 2 percent of seafood imports to the U.S. are inspected for contamination. And the crowded, unsanitary conditions on many industrial fish farms breed bacteria, viruses and parasites, forcing producers to use antibiotics and chemicals to prevent disease outbreaks.
