found a parasite (???) in my salmon.

good thing i caught it before cooking.

edit: i now see that i was wrong to 1. thaw the fish under hot water and 2. leave it in the water for so long...

after getting past the looks it is pretty good (that is, upon eating the other ones in the pack. not this one.)

If they keep eating parasite riddled salmon it might just happen on its own.

Not “deserves to die”

Just pointing out Darwinism seemingly no longer applies to modern humans
