Surely a site trying to sell you organic food supplements would not try to mislead you about the toxicity of non-organic food, right?BoldChild;4346955 said:afrobanditt;4346937 said:http://www.nutritionresearchcenter.org/healthnews/90-of-shrimp-is-from-toxic-sewage-ponds-in-asia/

people want things cheap, but don't realize the price they pay to get it that way.

i know....the problem is it builds up in a persons system over time causing stuff like cancer and other shit...........
anybody know even if getting stuff organic is safe? i know its more expensive but how do we "really" know its organic.....its in fruits imported overseas...all the pesticides and shit....wish America could support locally produced foods free from all this crap...

even if they're pushing an agenda, doesn't mean what they're saying isn't true. there are other sources confirming the story.

the MSNBC story I linked said 80, but I was more talking about confirming a high percentage, not the exact same number.
and this NPR site has the exact same number:http://commonhealth.wbur.org/2011/06/sewage-lagoon-shrimp-scary-food-stories
^^Saying it "comes from overseas" is not the same as saying it "comes from toxic sewage ponds in Asia".When you think of tainted seafood, you may think of the Gulf oil spill. But 80 percent of the fish and shrimp Americans eat actually comes from overseas — and a TODAY investigation that aired Tuesday found that some of that seafood may contain toxic chemicals that can cause serious health problems.
Word, I saw an article bitching about how giant tiger shrimp were cannibalizing other shrimp, and the first thing I did was google "giant tiger shrimp cooked".BoldChild;4347027 said:Speaking of shrimp, I wonder who was the first person to look at one and go "mmm, that looks tasty".
They look tasty to me, because I already know they're tasty, but the first human encounter with these things must have been interesting.
