Abstract: The next time you’re out to dinner at your favorite restaurant, you may want to hold the sushi—and the salmon and maybe even the shellfish. A new report from Oceana suggests that seafood mislabeling is widespread across the United States. According to National Geographic, Oceana senior scientist Kimberly Warner and her team took 449 samples from restaurants, fish markets, and grocery stores and found that, overall, 20 percent of them were mislabeled.
