WILL SEAFOOD BE SAFE?

The "sniff" test.


I told you in a previous post about how they are checking seafood for oil. To refresh your memory, basically all they do is sniff for oil.

But have no fear, environmentalists are here!!

Prominent environmental groups are calling for better testing. The Natural Resource Defense Council has sent letter to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) asking them to;
  • Ensure that there is comprehensive monitoring of seafood contamination.
  • Ensure public disclosure of all seafood monitoring data and methods.
  • Ensure that fishery re-opening criteria protect the most vulnerable populations, including children, pregnant women and subsistence fishing communities.

What would you do without us? =)
