Seafood
by tristero
So I heard on NPR today that They – Trustworthy Serious People who have access to the media – say that if you’re worried about the safety of Gulf seafood – that is, if you were so foolish as to think that the miles and miles and miles and miles of toxic petroloeum, dispersants, garbage, effluvia, and unmentionable detritus has poisoned your fish dinner-to-be, really, you shouldn’t be. It’s quite safe.
So what if the sludge in the Gulf looks like God had a bad case of the Runs? Once you wash it off, it’ll be fine. Did you know petroleum has preservative qualities! Why, it’ll taste even fresher than norma!
Besides, Americans happily eat meat cleaned in ammonia. No biggie.
