Default If you think farmed Salmon is gross (and it is) check this out

Fake steak, or "laboratory" steak.

Seeing that "beef" being grown in that Petri dish made me gag.

It's probably grown on irradiated fetal bovine serum too...

Ah, the rush to feed the most for the lowest cost. We're already down the food chain to eating bugs.

Several (20)? years ago a large hamburger chain tried to sell burgers made from earthworms..did not go so well, but as we run out of land....pressures for alternative food sources will only increase...and someday eating bugs will be as common as eating beef.

Is farmed salmon that much different than the way chickens and pigs are raised?

Not really but the difference is: that chickens and pigs are generally raised in Quarantined buildings and wildlife is unable to have interactions with them in case one gets sick and has a communicable disease.

Unlike wild salmon which have to swim in the same ocean as farmed salmon or ranch raised deer, elk etc. which can sometimes interact with wild species.

Farmed salmon are raised in close proximity to wild salmon and there seems to be an issue with disease transmittal to them. One of the suspects in declining wild populations.

You and me both.

I've posted this a few times already but in case someone hasn't seen it yet it's worth watching, especially if you buy farmed Salmon.

Great Documentary by Ms Morton, supposedly debunked on YouTube by ..none other than the Salmon Farmers. From my experience around the fish farms she is bang on.
Absolutely NOTHING is alive on the Ocean floor beneath the pens. It's barren. One visit and you know it can't be good. You couldn't give me farmed Salmon.

What's funny is BC's confused government and some of its citizens are fighting us to the death over a pipeline because it COULD leek and pollute the waterways yet these Salmon farms ARE clearly dooing some real damage and nobody says a word. Selective outrage

Don't know how to post pics, hopefully this works

Not a unique situation to just BC or North America.

Norway has cesspools full of farmed Salmon too.

Short version documentary.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RYYf8cLUV5E&t=2124s

Long version.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Mxo6qmmwe-I

Almost lost my lunch when he was folding the Salmon inside out and it started to disintegrate

Tried finding some info on land based Salmon farm water conditions but came up empty, I'm guessing it's hard to find for a reason.
