Description

I compare what cheap seafood costs before it reaches the store with what I actually see at the fish counter-and explain why twelve low-priced options would never make it into my cart. I also save the most alarming example for last: a product sold with a friendly label despite a serious mercury concern. I’m Randy Vogel, and I use my notebook, store prices, and straightforward arithmetic to examine: - The twelve cheap seafood choices I avoid - What I buy instead - Why two of the entries are technically water-dwelling bugs, not fish - How labels and pricing can affect what ends up on your table Tell me where you’re watching from and what a pound of tilapia costs at your local store. #Seafood #Fish #GroceryShopping #FoodSafety #Mercury #BudgetShopping
