Ordinary Gweilo

According to a story in yesterday’s Guardian, scientists say that farmed Scottish salmon has dangerously high levels of toxins, and the advice is that most people should only it once every two months, and the more vulnerable should avoid it altogether. Wild salmon is OK, and fish from other parts of the world is much safer. However, I’m not sure about Norwegian salmon, which is what Park’n’Shop normally sells, but Norway and Scotland are close to each other, and the salmon will all be fed on fish from the North Sea area.

So what is safe to eat? Not US beef, perhaps not pork from one supermarket chain in HK, possibly not chicken, definitely not civet cats…
