You’re dining out and spot salmon on the menu. What next? May we suggest navigating murky menu waters with this guide:
· Yes → If it’s wild-caught and you like salmon, go ahead and order.
· No → Ask the server about its source.
· They know → If it’s wild-caught and you like salmon, go ahead and order.
· They don’t know → Politely say you don’t mind waiting while they ask the kitchen or manager.
· Wild-caught → Great! Feel free to order.
· Ocean-farmed → Make a clear (but kind) “I’m disappointed” face. Say something like: “Darn. In that case, I’ll have the ______ instead.
· Yes → Kindly ask the server to share your feedback with the manager: “Would you be willing to let your manager know some customers really care about avoiding ocean-farmed salmon ?”
· No → You've already made an impact by asking. Thank you!
Fact
Often the source of salmon is not clearly labeled or specified. So it’s important to know that 99% of Atlantic salmon consumed globally is farmed in sea cages, and makes up a large majority of all salmon consumed (70% is farmed Atlantic, 30% is wild or farmed Pacific).
