As reported in the Startribune and on TV yesterday, fish meals of northern pike and walleye should be limited to one per week because of historical and ongoing mercury contamination.
What about bass and catfish, for example, and other larger fish favorites? Why are they exempt from contamination?
Another question. If these bigger predator fish get contaminated from eating many smaller fish, couldn't we likewise get contaminated by mercury when we eat many smaller fish?
I will do some research and get back to you.
