Fish and other seafood are wonderful healthy alternatives to meat. However, fears of mercury and other contaminants may keep many home cooks from using them more. According to KidSafe Seafood, the safest seafood for kids (and adults) to eat are:
* Wild Alaskan Salmon (Chum, Coho and Pink)
* Tilapia (US/Central American)
* Farmed Blue Mussels
* Northern US and Canadian Shrimp
* US Farmed Crayfish
* Farmed Bay Scallops
KidSafe Seafood has useful information on these types of fish, including how to choose and cook them. You can also get information about how seafood safety is evaluated.
Note: If your child has never eaten seafood before, consult your pediatrician before giving him any, to make sure that he is not allergic to them.
