There's something, well, fishy going on with certain favorite fish dishes, according to a new study from the conservation group Oceana. DNA tests showed that about 21% of the fish researchers sampled was not what it was called on the label or menu. That's despite nearly a decade of investigations, more regulations and Americans' appetites growing beyond fish sticks and tuna surprise."Consumers are getting ripped off," said Beth Lowell, Oceana's deputy vice president. Lowell said this isn't an isolated problem. Her organization tested more than 400 samples from 277 locations in 24 states and in the District of Columbia. |
