alt Hacker News> Astaxanthin for the color fair.
Why is it fair? Wild salmon also consume astaxanthin.
It’s like complaining that the farmers are bad for trying to mimic the fish’s natural diet.

I dont know what the fuck u r talking bout.
Farmed salmon meat is pink, whereas wild salmon meat is white/greyish. A dull color.
They don’t put the coloring in the food to emulate natural food sources. They do it because it looks more appealing to most consumers.
