Consider this: The U.S. governmentrecently revised its Dietary Guidelines for Americans to strongly stress the need for increased consump- overfishing and environmental contamination may make people unsure of their seafood choices, so here are two handytips to make the choices clearer: 1. Seek sustainable fish: Some species of fish are in critical decline due to overfishing, so it’s best to eat fish from healthy, renewable sources such as sar- dines, Alaskan salmon, catfish, crab and Atlantic mackerel. 2. Go for wild-caught: Food pro- ducers have reacted to depleted fisheries by “farming” seafood, either on land in pools or in shoreline pens. While this limits ocean overfishing, it can lead to other problems, such as sanitary conditions, environmental hazards and crossbreeding with native species. Wildcaught fish include sardines, mackerel, Pacific cod, wild trout and Pacific rock- fish.
