Salmon: One of the healthiest fish to eat, it's also one of the cheapest available in our stores in Upstate New York (even cheaper than catfish).
When fish farms were started (originating in our area), one of the intentions was to make some of these species available to all.
In the old, old days, the English government ruled that two days be "fish days" to accomodate the fishing industry.
I no longer fish and "cheap" farm grown salmon suits me just fine.

I love salmon (grilled---yummmm). It costs $7.99/lb in the grocery stores here in Atlanta, more at the Fresh Markets. How much are you paying up there in NY? I would love to have some evidence to present to our store why they are charging too much!
Yep, Salmon is on the menu at every restaurant I've been in all accross the Northeast. I'm surprised McDonalds isn't selling it.
Now if we could only farm more wood and oil.
