For the vote it would have to be “tuna”. But could you try and order less tuna, or none at all? Not only for the risks to your health, but it’s also really bad for the tuna. And there is no sustainable way to eat fish - not even tuna. Thanks.
Curious, are you against eating animals at all, or is there something specific to fish I'm unaware of?
Tried to phrase that in the most polite way, but I can't get the phrasing to not sound like I'm being a snarky dick. I'm genuinely asking. I'm not vegan, but I do try to limit myself as much as I can given the diets of the other people I cook for. Also not a fan of fish in general, but I'll cook and eat it when someone in the house goes fishing at the local lake or river. We never buy fish.
Thanks for fielding the question Wookie. And May I say Dharma that was the nicest question I ever got (ex Reddit so maybe Lemmy people are all lively). Honestly, if you (and everyone) cuts back on the red meat that’s good for you and great for the environment. Fish is a global problem - we have overfished the world. There is a good film about it, a few years old now “Sea-sporacy” if you have time. You are already in the top percentage because you are thoughtful about what you are consuming. Cool.
