Of coruse, the trouble with advisories like that is nobody has any idea what 6 oz. of fish actually looks like on a plate.
Huh -- I can eyeball a 6-oz fillet pretty easily. (Since I always order by weight when I go to the fishmonger anyway.)
Sunnydale's got too many demons and not enough retail outlets.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Five of the most commonly eaten fish that are low in mercury are shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon, pollock, and catfish.
Man, I wish they'd make up their minds about the salmon. I've been craving lox for ages, but I distinctly remember two different MD-vetted websites strongly cautioning against it.

I always thought that farmed salmon was bad, but wild was okay.

Cool! IIRC, the salmon and lox at TJ's are usually labeled farmed or wild.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Turns out you're right about the milk. But the real problem seems to be that portion labels on foods don't necessarily have anything to do with USDA portions. The graph on the 2nd page of this link (PDF) is kind of crazy: [link]
Pancakes are meant to be eaten only in tiny tiny bites!
Personally, my food-pyramid WTF is that 1 slice of bread is a serving. So a sandwich is 2 servings of grain! All those poor people eating bran muffins because they think they have to. Little do they know!

3 oz of meat is a deck of cards.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Why did no one save me from the horror that is the OC?? I realize food is important, but still!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Why did no one save me from the horror that is the OC??Because I stopped watching yonks ago. The eye rolling was exhausting.
