I don't see it in my ad but I heard someone talking about it. Was it on sale in your ad or store?

*butting into a forum for a store I don't have* lol What country is your tilapia coming from? Does anyone know? I was getting it from my Fred Meyer when it was still coming from Thailand, but now it's all out of China and I won't buy it. Just curious.

I hadn't noticed, but I just checked. It's from China. I know...I should stop buying it. But, with my meat allergy, tilapia and tuna are the only things I can afford to eat! Veggie burgers, peanut butter and beans get very tiring!!!

Can you tell me why it's not good to buy it because it's from China? Political, health-related, slave labor, illegal fishing ...???

I think it's health related. I recall hearing a story about fish being fed something disgusting or swimming in something gross... I don't really remember the details. I think I mentally blocked it so I could continue to eat the cheap fish!

Honestly, when I said I probably should stop buying it, I was being kind of sarcastic. It seems like every day, something different is not safe to eat. I can't keep up with it. So...if it doesn't make me or my family sick...I'm eating it.

Here's a little something I found: Seafood List: Tilapia | Monterey Bay Aquarium, Seafood Watch Program

Thanks for that Jujubee. I just don't trust anything out of China. I think they're just trying to poison us all. *paranoid conspiracy theory* lol I try my best to avoid all products from there, but it can be really hard sometimes.
