Yesterday I wrote about the controversy over whether pregnant and nursing women should eat fish and if so, how much they should eat. If you've decided that eating fish is the way to go for you and want to make sure that your choices are grounded in good information, there's a new service that can help you out via text message.
The Blue Ocean Institute is offering a service called FishPhone. Simply send a text message to 30644 with the word FISH and the type of fish you want to know about and it will get back to momentarily with information about that particular type of fish. You can also search on their website if you are planning dinner and want to check out the safety of the fish called for in your recipe. Unfortunately, the website doesn't give much info on mercury levels and seems pretty static, so it wouldn't be helpful in the case of current safety alert.
