I am allergic to fish now, but will urge others to boycott Atlantic herring products as well. Slaughtering the Minkes is just unconscionable, when all they have done wrong is get caught in their nets. They're not among the endangered whale species, sure, but I love seeing them whenever we're out on the Atlantic, whether for fishing (which I don't do any more, because I cannot eat the results) or whale watching. They're littler than other whale species, for those unfamiliar.
