Don't Expect to Eat Chilean Sea Bass at the Norwalk Maritime Aquarium
According to the Seafood Watch "Northeast Seafood Guide 2006," the worst choices include Chilean seabass, Atlantic cod, imported king crab, Mid-Atlantic sea scallops, Atlantic sole and flounder, Atlantic halibut, monkfish, farmed and Atlantic salmon, sharks and skates, swordfish and bluefin tuna.
If the guide's "avoid" list seems to leave little left to eat, consider some of the "best" seafood choices: farmed arctic char, catfish, oysters, mussels, tilapia, rainbow trout and striped bass; wild Alaska salmon and pollock, soft-shell clams and steamers; and spiny U.S. lobsters, Pacific halibut, Atlantic herring and sardines and Canada-caught dungeness and snow crabs.
Seafood Watch also offers a number of "good alternatives," including black sea bass; Atlantic surf and hard clams; Alaska-caught king crabs and U.S.-caught snow crabs; hook-caught haddock, albacore and big-eye tuna, Maine lobster, mahi mahi and Northeastern and Canadian sea scallops.
