What Did Adam Ruin for You?

truTV's Adam Ruins Everything is a show involving myth-busting. The show's host, Adam Conover, goes around disproving commonly excepted ideas (and making you feel like an idiot in the process).

I find the show enjoyable and am more than happy to have my misconceptions wiped out because I actually like facts. But, I've come to realize that everyone who watches the show probably has at least one thing Adam has ruined for them. For me it's salmon.

See. Come to find out, there's a HUGE fish scam going on in the restaurants across this country. The fish you think you're getting might not be what's served up to you on that bed of rice pilaf, but that's the least of my seafood problem Adam has caused for me.

Salmon is one of my favorite fish. I used to order it all the time - until Adam. Look on any restaurant menu and you'll see "Atlantic Salmon", which doesn't even exist. It's not a real thing. Turns out that "Atlantic Salmon" is a fancy name for farm raised salmon. This farmed raised version has grey colored meat because they feed it disgusting stuff. If you were to see this fish on your plate, you'd throw up. Trust me on this. So, the producers dye the meat pink. Viola! Problem solved and consumer fooled.

So, now I can't order salmon anymore because most salmon on the menu is this Clariol Nice 'N Easy kind.

I used to eat in blissful ignorance. But Adam had to go and ruin it for me. He really does ruin everything. Thanks Adam!

And by the way Adam, you're off my Christmas card list. So there!
