When I learned that I couldn't eat sushi when I became pregnant, I was crushed. My husband and I got take-out from our corner sushi joint at least twice a week; how would I survive nine months without spicy tuna maki and yellowtail hand rolls?
Plus, I'd read about how the Omega-3 fatty acids in fish can help during pregnancy with the development of my baby's brain and nervous tissues. Not wanting my progeny to be a dullard (or insensitive, for that matter), I figured I was in store for a lot of tuna-salad sandwiches.
Sometimes you read a headline that really throws you. Like this one: "Hunters and Fisherman Want Action on Global Warming." Action? Do they want to bet on it? Are the hunters and fisherman excited by global warming – a warmer planet means more bikinis? That kind of action?
Not quite.
