Don't bother spending the money on buying wild salmon - it might not be wild after all.
For that matter, salmon are considered to be low in mercury, so they are considered safe by the EPA.
The real bad stuff is in Swordfish, Shark, King Mackerel, or Tilefish. And women of child bearing age and young children should avoid these completely, whether they are wild or farm raised, because there is plenty of mercury pollution in the eastern Atlantic as well.
