Search for your favorite fish, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium will let you know if it's safe to eat. If you are a pregnant woman or a parent with small children, the government advises you and your children to eat smart to reduce mercury. Take the Sierra Club's quiz on Mercury (http://www.sierraclub.org/quiz/mercury/), then get a handy guide that you can print to carry with you. If you are not near a computer and still want to make sustainable seafood choices, you can now text the Blue Ocean Institutes's Fish Phone (http://www.blueocean.org/Seafood/). Simply text FISH and the name of the fish to 30644, and you'll receive a message back with information on whether the fish is safe to eat.
