In fact, tilapia from Vietnam and China are fed pig feces and packed in ice made from polluted water, which is why it's so dangerous to eat them.

Why did you link to a story from 2012? I eat farmed tilapia from Asia all the time with no ill effects.

Yep, I wouldn't buy farmed fish from Asia.

Agreed I avoid shrimp from Asia as well. They are using manure to dose nitrogen but it’s still not a sanitary practice
