Problem is, some food distribution systems have such long supply chains, it can be almost impossible to determine where a particular item in a multi-item product actually comes from. This goes for grocers, restaurants and small eateries, too, which often contract with food suppliers and really don't know who's supplying the suppliers (and will tell you anything when you ask).
Despite the fact that I'd like to eat more seafood, the contaminants that are creeping into our shallow and deep sea ranges are making all seafood more and more suspect by the day. I was backing off of some items, like tuna, because of mercury concerns, long before the oil spill.
One more source of sustenance, being steadily ruined by the desire to waste oil.
