[Governor Dinwiddie]

Eat the bugs like the fish. The fish eat bugs.

Whatever became of the mercury in tuna thing from the 70’s?

[Cold Heart]

“Damn. Now I want some catfish.”

Cooked on a gas stove

And deep fried in lard

They're trying to get a payout from corporations

They are succeeding. GE paid billions to clean/dredge parts of the Hudson River.

I read recently that consuming iodine helps to remove mercury. Fish have iodine.

When I want fish, I have two favorite fishing spots:

1) A place nobody knows about called Long John Silver’s. I think there’s one left in my area and it’s not exactly an area that I like to go to.

2) Another place where I catch little square fish. They come with a bun and cheese and I get extra tartar sauce. I think the place is called McDonald’s.

Don’t tell anyone about my favorite fishing spots!

How about all of the estrogen that has been dumped into the water supply via wide spread use of birth-control pills?

So we can cause it and cure it at the same time?

Imagine what it’s like to the sushi eaters.

[Osage Orange]

Crap....I’ve been dead for years...and never knew it.

FWIW Joe Rogan said he was eating sardines several times a week and then mercury came up in his blood tests. Again, FWIW.

More enviro-nonsense. They’re called “forever chemicals” because they ae almost chemically inert. If they won’t stick to food at +400F, how the heck can the body metabolize them?

[Varda]

I thought that was PCBs.

[TTFX]

They tested whether consuming fiber helps to remove these things. It does.

[V V Camp Enari 67-68]

How about we’re doomed!

[TribalPrincess2U]

Just eat your Cricket Bran and be happy. Only healthy indoor raised crickets.
No free-range veggie eating crickets.

[Chickensoup]

that is odd.
Mercury is a top of the food chain issue.

These Marxists are working hard to convince us we need to eat bugs and pay lots of money to to “fix the planet”.

[1Old Pro]

I thought that was PCBs.

It was but they will get corporations to pay for PFAs as well. I think here's a recent example: https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/3m-others-reach-65-mln-deal-with-ny-town-over-pfoa-drinking-water-2021-07-22/
