I use to eat wild salmon at least one a week when I traveled, but now I don't eat salmon at all when I'm in the USA on a business trip. I discovered that 98% of all salmon that finds it's way into an American fish market is 'farmed' salmon that is grown in salt water containment ponds in China, then shipped nightly to the USA on FedEx and UPS cargo flights. Only 2% of all fish consumed in the USA comes from American-caught fishing vessels off the east and west coast of the USA.
The problem with 'farmed' salmon is that it is fed pelletized animal byproduct like fat, skin, gristle and bone that is collected from abattoirs in China. That is why almost all salmon that comes into the USA is SO full of a yellowish-colored fish oil that coats kitchen walls when it's cooked. That yellowish oil is the same color as the pelletized fish food it was fed while in salt water captivity on those fish farms in China.
