I am not commercially involved in tuna.
But I am involved with smokers of salmon.
I've heard about this "Carbon monoxide tuna", and I've seen it in supermarkets, and some buyers have told me they're afraid of it, and others find it OK, since no one has told them that there's anything wrong, and, most importantly, it sells.
What's the deal?
Should it, or should it not, be allowed for commercial sale in the US?
If there's a problem or risk associated with the process, don't the seafood techies have an obligation to advise the industry and/or the public about their concern(s)?
