And that’s basically it!
So it's not that we grow chicken to feed it to salmon, we use the leftovers that would otherwise go to waste. This is good!
Granted, of course, that sanitary standards are followed. In the EU, I don't expect it to be a problem.
Seriously it's in the body of text in the post. Leftovers of the chickens that cannt be used for humans dogs and cats get used for the fish.
This is like people arguing against leather at this point when millions of animals are being slaughtered and their hides are being thrown into landfills because demand is so low. If they are already slaughtering the animals, use the parts. As demand for cows/chickens comes down find alternatives, but throwing away parts of a slaughtered animal is worse to me.

I've seen a documentary a while back that the fish feed from the baltic sea used for fish farms is pretty toxic.
Y'all, a lot of farm raised tilapia is fed chicken manure or pellets made with manure. Look up some Aquaculture setups where chickens poop into a pond to feed fish, the fish feed water to fertilize plants.
Typically, pathogens don't jump and survive between species like this. This is a zero percent news item other than "why use inefficient chickens for the protein input?" Black soldier fly large eating compost and food waste should be the go-to option.
If we ever get invaded by aliens, they are gonna laugh their asses off.
So why don't you eat food you grow
See, it's really smart actually. We feed it to the chicken, then we feed the chicken to the salmon and then ww throw away most of it, but we eat some of it.
Your planet is dying.
LET PEOPLE ENJOY THINGS
Brother, I crave prions.
Feed chicken to salmon
Feed Salmon to chicken
Holy shit I just found an infinite food hack
And next, were going to feed salmon remains to chicken. Close the circle of life.
Creutzfeldt-Jacob comes for a visit!
We have already had that for a long time, fishmeal for example. One of the contributing reasons for high amounts of dioxins in egg production.
And the fishy taste of eggs... Can remember egg packages with the claim 'made without fishmeal'
and then salmon starts to taste like chicken.
If you have a small lot you can keep chickens yourself. Know a few people around me doing that.
Just one step away from genetically engineering the chicken salmon!
mmm... salmon wings
Mad salmon disease is in the air.
Not how that works.
It will be when they start feeding them left over salmon heads, tails, fins, etc. These capitalists wont let that fine source of calories go to waste.
The chicken or the salmon?
yes
What if we make them eat the grasshoppers instead of us?
I'm not worried about salmon or chickens eating me.
chickens are omnivirous so yes they would eat you, they just need like hundresd of them to peck you.
Can we at least try eating grasshoppers first?
The wings get stuck in my teeth 😞
I haven't tried huffing the powder though

This is my new favorite meat replacement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjFDFsg7l60
More protein per pond than chicken breast with none of the fat and none of the colesterol.
