A short YouTube video by Joy Kong, MD comparing farmed salmon and wild-caught salmon; highlights differences in parasite control methods (e.g., lasers used in farms) and notes that visible worms in fillets are typically from wild-caught fish. The clip frames farm practices as technological (laser treatment) versus natural conditions in wild salmon.
There's a lot of different other things that farm salmon companies do. Like, they have lasers that the salmon will swim through and it'll kill all the parasites, which is. Oh, wow. That's very cool. I know, it's super cool. But again, in the wild, there is no such thing. So whenever you see those videos, because I'm sure you have, and I'm sure a ton of other people have as well, of these salmon fillets with little white worms swimming through it, basically, that's wild caught salmon.
