Charitable Warning: Mowi's Salmon Wagon is Hitting the Road Again - there's no such thing as a free farmed fish lunch!

 



 

 

My eight year old daughter is currently is reading 'Ratburger' by David Walliams - a book which leaves you with a nasty taste in the mouth (you may have watched the movie which would have put you off dodgy burger vans for life).

I can't help but thinking of 'Ratburger' when reading news of Mowi's 'Salmon Wagon' serving 'healthy' burgers to unsuspecting punters at charity events this Summer.

Scottish Ministers Kate Forbes and Fergus Ewing were famously pictured in 2019 promoting disease-ridden Mowi salmon. 

 

 

 

 

The photo of Fergus Ewing tucking into Mowi salmon at the Lochaber Show (pictured with Kate Forbes MSP, another Scottish Minister busy prom0ting Norwegian-owned 'Scottish' salmon) brought back memories of John Gummer (then the UK Minister of Agriculture) feeding his daughter a bite of British beef at the height of the BSE scandal.

There's no denying the money raised by Mowi's 'Salmon Wagon' for charity.

As Smashey and Nicey would say: "It's for charity, mate"!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's also no denying the wonderful publicity the 'Salmon Wagon' generates for disease-ridden Mowi.

Sadly, applications by charities for the use of Mowi's 'Salmon Wagon' have now closed - applicants will be notifed by 25 March if they've been 'successful'.   If charities are still on the look out for a burger van, David Walliams can be contacted via his agent online here - the Ratburger van may well be available for your event.  I'd rather eat a ratbuger than one of Mowi's salmon burgers!

Scamon Scotland is also looking into hiring a van to take on the road this Summer and is hoping that Del Boy Trotter's old van will be available to tour Scotland.

Last month (18 February 2022), Scamon Scotland reported that Mowi was experiencing huge disease and mortality problems:

 

 

 

 

According to the Fish Health Inspectorate data published on 7 February 2022, Norwegian giant Mowi has reported 3.1 million mortalities since 1 January 2021 (data up to mid-January 2022) via 184 'Mortality Event Reports' - here's the biggest mass mortalities in sea cages or freshwater cages headed by over 100,000 dead salmon at Grey Horse Channel Outer in North Uist:

In July 2021, Scottish Salmon Watch exposed the lice-infested nature of Mowi's Scottish salmon:

 

 

 

 





 

 

Millions around the world have watched 'Seaspiracy' on Netflix which quite literally lifts the lid on Mowi's disease-ridden salmon (but don't worry, it's certified as welfare-friendly by RSPCA Assured and "farmed responsibly" by the Aquaculture Stewardship Council):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In November 2021, France 5 broadcast shocking video footage of lice-infested Mowi salmon:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And if you love your pharmed salmon with a side order of antibiotics, then you're in luck.  The Sunday National and The Ferret reported last week (27 February 2022):
