No rub and tug for you OldMan......

Not any more, the way things stand, mmmm, maybe should use a different word than stand.

At one time in my life I couldn't possibly imagine being celibate, I mean the world might as well have ended. Funny how some drugs make you frisky while others diminish the urge.

I’m hoping Mother Nature is good to me so she grows nice. PM, cats and budrot have been known to kill plants in my area.

I just saw on the news that Biden has selected Harris as his predecessor. I can’t believe anyone would vote for that cackling hag.

Fatty fish, such as salmon and mackerel, are better than leaner, white fish, such as mahi mahi or flounder, as fatty fish contain essential omega-3 fatty acids and fat-soluble nutrients the body can absorb, explains Gomer. Adults should eat at least 8 ounces of fish per week based on a 2,000-calorie diet, according to the FDA.

7 Healthiest Fish to Eat, According to Experts​

The healthiest fish to eat are those that contain plenty of nutrients while containing little to no mercury, a potential risk with certain types of fish.

“Think SMASH—sardines, mackerel, anchovies, salmon and herring—when choosing the healthiest fish to eat,” says Amanda Sauceda, a registered dietitian and founder of The Mindful Gut, a nutritional guidance company in Long Beach, California.

To help you choose, below are seven of the healthiest fish to eat, according to experts.

1. Sardines​

“Sardines are one of the healthiest fish to eat because they’re very high in omega-3s,” says Gomer. “Sardines are eaten with the bone in, so they have calcium, and because they’re so little, they haven’t had a chance to acquire mercury,” she adds. Sardines are inexpensive and can be purchased in a tin in water or olive oil, with or without salt, says Gomer.

2. Mackerel​

Mackerel is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, says Sauceda. As an oily fish, mackerel is also a good source of vitamin D. Fried mackerel is higher in carbohydrates and sugars but lower in protein than canned, grilled, baked or broiled mackerel, according to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).

3. Anchovies​

Anchovies are another type of fatty fish that are high in omega-3s. Anchovies provide large amounts of calcium, phosphorus (a mineral needed to make energy in the body) and potassium.

4. Salmon​

A popular oily fish, salmon is chock-full of nutrients including omega-3s, protein, potassium, vitamin D, vitamin E and several B vitamins. Tinned salmon contains bones, which is an added source of calcium and phosphorus.

5. Herring​

Herring is another oily fish that is an excellent source of omega-3s and vitamin D, as well as selenium and vitamin B12, a vitamin essential for the body’s central nervous system health and for making white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets. “The advantage of herring is that it is a wild caught fish (not farmed),” says Gomer. “The other huge advantage is that the issue of wild caught fish with mercury is much less of a problem in small fish (like sardines and herring).”

6. Trout​

Trout is another oily fish that’s high in omega-3s and a good source of vitamin D, as well as potassium and phosphorous. Fried trout has higher levels of fat and carbohydrates and less protein than when grilled or steamed.

7. Tuna​

Although not an oily fish, tuna is still a healthy choice thanks to the omega-3s, iodine and taurine (an amino acid that contributes to cellular structure, controls bleeding, reduces blood pressure and more) this fish contains.

The healthiest version of tuna is canned light, including skipjack tuna. Albacore and yellowfin tuna are also good choices, but it’s recommended to avoid bigeye tuna due to high mercury level risk, according to the FDA.

If you’re going to eat fish, you better live near the ocean

I really love salmon is probably my favorite fish but I don’t trust it. All we get is farmed salmon and I hear nothing but bad about it….

Good day to you Sub

Back in the days of growing in the wild, there was so many things to damage or annihilate your plants. It took years of learning to minimize the risks. Even then, the percentage of getting it all harvested was 50/50.
In my mind outdoor grown cannabis is superior in effect. The flavor of indoor is better.

I hope you have a grand harvest.

Yeah, just saw that on the “news”…I stand corrected… I just don’t understand how things can go the way they’ve been going for years. This shit has been happening forever, but I don’t think we’re gonna get a second chance with this situation… We’re going to poke China one more time and that’s all she wrote…

Oh lord, mention farm salmon here in BC and don't be sure how the conversation is going to go.

The farmed salmon industry has invested big money in promoting itself.
The wild salmon advocates will quickly tell you of the dangers farmed salmon can cause.

I would have nothing against the fish farms if they did it on land, I still wouldn't buy farmed over wild.
