On the contrary, I don't miss tobacco or peanuts

Australian beef and checked out the Mad Cow

I was eating half a steak just about every day.
I've since slackened off a bit, having had my
fill and discovering the very nice wild turbot
and orange roughy also sold by Trader Joe's.
I'd lay off the orange roughy for the species's sake. It's in danger
from overfishing -- it's a slow-maturing, slow-reproducing fish.

I'm aware of that. It's my goal in life to eat the
very last orange roughy pulled from the ocean! :-)

My main concern is mercury. I've been eating lots
of fish recently, and I know it's not healthful
to eat fish every day because of the mercury.
But I feel that the risk is outweighed by fish
being soooo delicious, when properly prepared.

You're ok with eating copius amounts of mercury, but you need the
smelling salts for peanuts?

Orange roughy is a particular concern for mercury concentration.
