Is it tilapia? Salmon? Good old fried cod? Which fish is the healthiest? Katherine Hobson's article about fish in the U.S. News & World Report tries to answer some of the questions that come up when looking at a menu at, say, the Bristol Seafood Grill or at the refrigerated seafood case at the supermarket. "You come with an array of priorities," writes Hobson, "that don't always dovetail: promoting heart health, sidestepping contaminants like mercury, and avoiding the purchase of fish produced in an unsustainable way. A fish that scores high marks in one category may fall short in another."
