This headline seemed really misleading when I read the actual article -- I wish they'd led with the fact that it's actually farmed fish that's less healthy, not salmon overall. I live in a place where wild salmon is widely available, so the distinction is important. I mean, our wild salmon populations are falling off so we probably should lay off a bit (and farmed salmon has something to do with that), but still -- it's not that salmon is bad, it's that farmed fish is bad (and the article cites just one of many reasons why).
