Exactly! Why advertise a food that will harm generations to come. The author touts the whale meat as a delicacy when it is poison. In addition, the killing methods are inhumane, and the population numbers data deficient.
No Vegan agenda here just stating the facts:
DIETARY RECOMMENDATIONS REGARDING PILOT WHALE MEAT AND BLUBBER IN THE FAROE ISLANDS
Pál Weihe, Høgni Debes Joensen
"The latest analyses show that the mercury concentration of pilot whale remains high, with an average of about 2 micrograms per gram. In the EU, the highest limit value of 1 microgram per gram is only applicable to the most contaminated species of fish. This limit is exceeded by most pilot whales." The physicians noted that mercury and PCB exposure contribute to Parkinson's disease in adults, impaired immunity in children, and compromised fetal development. "It is recommended that pilot whale is no longer used for human consumption," they warned.
If you would like a link please let me know. Pilot Whale meat is deemed unfit for consumption. We are not talking about grass fed organic beef so again irresponsible can only describe your post.
I find this article very irresponsible in regards to small cetacean mean meaning dolphins. 1) Pilot Whale meat who are in the dolphin family, Atlantic white sided dolphins are toxic and unfit for human consumption, the hunt is cruel and inhumane, and their population numbers are data deficient. What you are advertising is a poison food obtained through blood sport. #EndFaroeGrind
