UPDATE: FDA refuses to reveal how many fish farms and in which states. But you can be pretty damn sure that NW farmed salmon is likely on the list.

Isn't this just great!!! They farm these fish around endangered salmon runs in the Pacific Northwest; they mingle and escape the nets and are likely passing this on to other species who eat them and eventually, this gets into the killer whales, who are also endangered!!! We just can't seem to get any bloody thing properly!!!

I would like to know what American companies on the stock market with their symbols are buying and using this melamine tainted feed to feed farmed fish in the U.S.A.
This address may have some interesting information but i am on dial up and can't watch the current vidios currently being shown on the net.

I cannot help but feel we are seeing the tip of the iceberg here. How many PEOPLE is this mess affecting right now? Will there be an upsurge in kidney disease in humans because of this. I sure hope NOT! My brother died of kidney failure a few months ago. I would not wish on anyone what he went through.
