Group Finds Mislabeling of Fish Across Nation

Posted: Updated:

(KCEN) -- We're told to eat fish because of the health benefits, but unless you're an inquisitive customer you may not be getting the nutritional value you think you are.

Oceana, an International Ocean Conservation Group, tested fish from 674 retail outlets across the nation.

And they found mislabeling everywhere.

Here are a few examples for you:

In Pennsylvania 56 percent of the fish was mislabeled.

Southern California came in second at 52 percent.

Right now less than one percent of seafood is inspected by the government for fraud.
