Why do wild salmon taste better tham farm raised salmon?
I think it would There are several reasons: First: A wild salmon swims up to thousands of kilometers from the river it was born to reach the feeding grounds in the sea and then return to spawn in the very same river it was born. The farmed salmon, on the other hand, stays in the salmon farm. Just like the farmers pigs, farmed salmon are fat and lazy fellows. They are not at all as fit as a wild salmon. When smoked, a portion of the bellies of farmed salmon have to be cut of, just because it's awfully fat. Second: Farmed salmon eat fish pellets made from fish. This diet gives the fish pale white or greyish flesh as such a diet doesn't contain any natural carotenes. Carotenes are responsible for the orange colour of the flesh of a wild salmon - because they eat shrimps. The salmon farmers feed the salmon with pellets containing artificial colour. If you search for pictures on Google by googling "salmofan" you will se that the producers can create salmon with virtually any colour you like. The colour of the flesh doesn't influence the taste of the salmon, though. But the diet of wild salmon beeing more diversified: Baitfish and shrimps, ensures it a better taste.
