Seafood Selector

All fish and seafood is not created equally. For health and/or environmental reasons, consumption of some species should be limited and other species should be be avoided altogether. The Environmental Defense Fund has a website that helps when selecting which types of seafood to eat. You can print out the seafood pocket guide and take it with you when you buy seafood at the grocery store or local fish market.
