Description

Everyone knows that fish are a healthy alternative to meat, right? This week on Lets Get Real, Erica Wides talks about some of the common misconceptions about our favorite oily fish, salmon and tuna. Do you know the differences between omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids? And did you know that ALL tuna contains mercury? Tune in to hear some of the healthier fish to eat instead of farmed salmon and tuna, the dangers of escaped farmed fish, and why smaller fish are inevitably better for you. Tune in to Erica and escape from foodiness. This program has been brought to you by Hearst Ranch. The Eastern or the Atlantic Salmon hasnt been eaten in any great amounts in 100 years. Tuna arent like potato chips, you cant make more of them. Once theyre gone, theyre gone! -- Erica Wides on Lets Get Real

On Let’s Get Real Chef Erica Wides walks you down the aisles of the surreal world of food, serving up a heaping dose of reality by separating the food from the foodiness so you can forage, hunt, gather, trap and fish for real food anywhere, even in a foodiness-filled mega market. Incisive, pragmatic, sarcastic, and an unrepentant know-it-all when it comes to anything food, on Let’s Get Real Chef Erica Wides does the job for you of sifting out everything that’s fake in the world of food – from “foodiness” marketing and cooking show shams to “health-halo green-washing” and annoying whole-food righteousness – so you never unknowingly chow down on carpeting again.
