Thumbs up A major US Grocery chain steps up ... where did that fish come from?

Safeway is one of the US's largest grocery chains; they've got the buying power to make this stick: Seafood firm backs Safeway policy

"Albertson's," another huge national chain went this way a few years back with 'legally/Indian Netted' Steelhead. Why pi ss off every sports fisherman in the PNW and Western Canada?

The netting still goes on, but the fish are shipped to the East Coast and sold as (or were) as "Summer Salmon." Until the plug got pulled .... they're not 'Salmon.'
