My wife and I only eat wild line caught Alaskan Salmon. On the shelf next to the fake sewage raised stuff it’s like night and day. Wild caught nice and deep red, sewage raised, almost white with a pink tint.no thanks!

Farming fish is like farming anything else-- it can be done well or poorly. Doing it well costs more. Higher cost items don't sell as well, especially in in hard times. I prefer wild salmon and get it when I can, though the oceans also have plenty of toxins. I'm counting on my health to maintain my body's filters to control the toxins from wild or farmed fish. Everything is a tradeoff. All salmon has benefits, all has risks. Our only way to calculate them is with a well equipped lab, or relying on reputable supply chains. I get my salmon at Costco, and have recently noticed they are often out of wild fish, but always have lots of farmed, which is usually fatter, moister and tastier than the wild.

I'm curious whether the availability is from fisheries problems or Costco decisions. I suspect Costco makes more profit from wild so they would prefer to stock that if they can get it. And if wonder if AquaBounty's financial problems are because they grow cleaner fish and are uncompetitive due to higher costs. The solution is probably to teach more people to make smarter food choices, which our government and doctors don't do. Our health is not profitable.

After seeing the expose' video of fish farms in Norway, I decided I would never buy farmed fish again. The main problem is an ingredient in the fish feed that is toxic. And you cannot get the companies to let you know whether that ingredient is in the feed. I can't remember what it's called; it's some chemical-type substance

Humans eating pelleted fish feed and sewage. Not on my plate. I also will not buy hydroponic or greenhouse produce.

Although I would not eat farmed fish, I think that because this company conducts there fish farming on land, is better than using open pens in the ocean that cause ecological habitat destruction and diseases for wild salmon.

Stop calling it "farm raised". The correct term is "sewage raised".
