Yesterday, from the Bowdoin Daily Sun, I received a link to an excellent guide to eating seafood from Food & Water Watch. We all know that seafood can and should be part of a healthy diet. (The excellent health of Japanese women can be partly tied to their love of seafood.) However, because of pollution and overfishing, some seafood is better than others. 

Food & Water Watch have compiled a list that addresses specific seafood and its impact on both human health and the environment. A pocket guide can be downloaded, and there is also a quick, handy guide on the website for different kinds of seafood. I was very happy to discover that three of my favorites—haddock, wild salmon, and lobster—get a check of approval for human and environmental health. 

This means I can eat lobster rolls and haddock with a clear conscience. Delicious, good for you, and not bad for the environment. A triple run!
