Wild. Better-tasting and better for you.

Neither... not because I'm a snob or something like that, but because it SOOOOO painful to the enviroment...and I might be dead at anytime and I don't want to pay the karma.

Pretty sure you might want to stay away from Pacific species. Tepco released a statement in 2013 that best guess was something like 4 quadrillion radioactive elements were released into the environment. The number might have been 400, not sure... 5 years ago. A couple of these isotopes has 300 year half life. One of the Isotopes collects in the bones, mimics calcium, and your bones stop producing.... if I remember right... been 5 years.... children and persons 50 above are at highest risk. The reports I read over 2012 - 2014 talked about dead zones and catching fish with radiation burns. A competitive boater traveled from Australia to Japan and stated he saw one whale the entire trip. Radiation burns were present. He sad he has made the trip several times and always experiences marine life. He stated it was a dead zone. Of coarse all of those reports could be false, even the one about the EPA lowering the amount of radiation found in food by a few thousand percent in 2013. And maybe that is not the reason 1 million new cases of cancer were reported in 2014 in the United States. Or maybe that is not the reason why 1 in 2 persons in the U S will have cancer by like 2022, I just saw that stat today, it might have been 1 in 4. But who knows, that could be fake to. Iodine, cessium, strontium Isotopes are the bad ones.

I find wild is better tasting. Farmed is a little more fattier.

I get my salmon,halibut, crab and prawns from Hoonah Alaska when I go visit my son. I bring back two coolers in my checked baggage for 25 bucks apiece. I haven't eaten farmed fish as long as I can remember. I give most of the salmon away as it is not my favorite fish to eat.

You can ship all the salmon to me in Louisiana, okay?!?! 🙂

@BlueWave I'll catch them and you can eat them. Nice bike, just got mine out this morning. We still have snowbanks here.

@jonds56 Okay, deal! Snow still? Ugh..... I'm a big ol' baby in any temps under 70. I can do colder, but not joyfully. 🙂

No salmon, because it tastes horrible.

No accounting for taste.

@Tomas You disagree with me, and therefore must be wrong. 😉

As long as it is salmon, I do not care.

I predict a tie; they both suck at basketball.
