Please run the audio through a pop filter and upload it again.

The constant popping was very annoying and distracting.

As supersize me and supersize me albacore style have demonstrated, it isn't good eating too much of anything, whether it be mcdonald's french fries or canned corn. It isn't even good to drink too much water. Everything should be consumed in moderation, hence why we have the food pyramid and its size/quantity proportions.

I do find it disturbing that the FDA won't use the microanalytic process to determine which fish have high levels of mercury. If the fish have too high levels of mercury, wouldn't you just throw it back in the water? I don't think the fish with high levels of mercury will affect the other fish swimming in the water, although I could be completely wrong.

Scary. I don't really like tuna except maybe once in a blue moon in sushi but that is changed now especially after I read this article that talks about how bad raw tuna in sushi is. Apparently there is a lot more mercury in raw tuna than in canned. Here is the article: http://tinyurl.com/kofo5z
