I love Tuna in my sushi - will be hard to give that up :-(
At least in Sushi, it will be in smaller portions. The video mentions Blackfin and Bluefin Tuna with no mention of Yellowfin.
In addition to containing the vast amounts of mercury and other toxins, Bluefin Tuna are seriously overfished. They are currently at over 90% less than the level they were at in 1970.
That means only 10% remain.
https://safecatch.com/ This is the kind of Tuna we eat. Its not cheap but they test it for Chemicals before they try to sell it.
You would think that most of the fish in the Pacific ocean would be full of radioactive isotopes with all of the bombs and the Fukushima disaster that is still going on.
We will all die eventually from something different. Tainted fish is still probably better than eating too much red meat. I don't worry about it much because I don't eat it every day.
It's not radiation to worry about. The levels from Fukushima are miniscule in the Pacific Ocean and in fish.
It is Mercury (very toxic to humans), that should worry most people.
Unfortunately for me, Tuna is my favorite BBQ fish!
