Seems there's a high risk of ingesting mercury if you eat a lot of maguro."A recent study done for the New York Times found surprisingly high levels of mercury in sushi -- tuna sushi -- at 20 restaurants and supermarkets in Manhattan. In some cases, the mercury levels were higher than allowed by the federal government."
"Experts say there's also another reason for avoiding bluefin tuna -- it's being over-fished and its numbers are declining."
Rico says he's pissed, because there's nothing better than bluefin sushi. Worse yet, his fall-back fish, mackeral, is also on the don't-eat list...
