Great Fish Buying Tip

December 31st, 2008

In the most recent issue of Bon Appetit magazine (Feb 2009), they have a really great article on 50 Easy Ways to Eat Green.

What I discovered is Text Fishphone – it’s utterly brilliant! It’s the easiest way to find out what fish at your local grocery store is good for you (mercury levels, farming methods) and good for the environment (sustainable, farming methods). And it’s so simple: text 30644 and enter FISH, followed by the name of the fish you want to buy. It’ll return a text telling you if it’s a good one or not.

    Hi Pip,

    This is great, thanks for posting about Fish Phone. I work for the company that powers the technology behind Fish Phone. I have been looking for the Bon Appetit article online and cannot find it.

    Do you have a link?

    Happy New Year – let me know if you want any similar stories about text messaging.

    Best,

    Michael

    Michael -

    unfortunately the link isn’t on the BA site yet. i assume it’ll be up there in the next couple of weeks. i’m not sure what their editorial calendar is for print publications vs website publication of the same content.

    but when it’s available, i’ll add it to the post.
