I can. Farm raised atlantic salmon is much more delicate
while retaining salmon flavor. It's almost entirely the
reason I started eating salmon again a couple of years ago.
Wild salmon can be downright gamey, which is okay if you're
looking for exactly that sort of experience. The farmed
versions take to various forms of cooking, while the
wild ones are going to scream "fishy" under the strongest
of spices. Which is good if that's what you want, but not
so good for your more subtle seasonings.


I can too.
It's funny, if I eat farmed salmon I taste a bland flavorless fish.
Maybe
you should try a different fish monger if the wild fish you've eaten
tastes
gamey. Overcooking can make a fish taste stronger too, try cooking your
fish
a little less.


Uh, maybe you should find a different fish monger if all the farmed salmon
is
bland flavorless fish. The farmed salmon I eat has good, rich flavor.

I don't think it's unreasonable for consumers to know the fact that food
colouring is added to their food.

Same here. I'd like to know when they dye products.

You poor boys and girls sure have a lot to learn about fish and salmon and
food and life and about sushi as that is the topic of this newsgroup. Come
visit the real world sometime and we will show you a thing or two about
salmon and sushi and seafood. Get out of the smogged out city, the fake
restaurants the highrises and the sweaty offices and take a tour with me and
my friends to see how we real men spend our spare time on the West Coast of
Canada. Yes we do have professional jobs, University degrees, eat in fine
sushi restaurants run by real Japanese people (we have hundreds of Japanese
sushi places) and visit our clean city, where the wonderful world of nature
is just outside the city limits and not reserved for just a priveleged few.

Take the slide show tour folks and see what you are missing. Then, if your
nice, we will let you come visit and spend some of your bland coloured money
and if you are good we will get you out for a day on the water if your
polluted lungs and bodies could deal with it, and then a night on the town.

After all that we will take you to a salmon slug farm for a day and show you
how the crap that you are eating is raised in it's own shit and disease and
I can promise you that you will never touch the stuff again. Ah what a
little enlightment could do. These places are a lot like the leper colonies
of old.

We will welcome you and your greenbacks with open arms. Well your
greenbacks anyway.

Humbly yours,

Bill
