If you’re “fishing” for a good catch tonight, don’t go looking off of the shores of Toronto in polluted Lake Ontario. Toronto restaurants and markets are gaining recognition for their catches, but because of this, the possibility a successful 100 Mile Diet has gone down the drain.
In 2008, blogTO selected a top list of fish restaurants and markets in the downtown core for those looking for seafood. While the restaurants and markets may be raving about their selections, there are no signs of local seafood on the site.
The 100-mile diet is a recent movement which has encouraged locally grown and produced food in order to reduce the carbon footprint caused by shipping food around the globe and encourages a healthy and organic diet.
While shipping and freezing is a more favourable financial option, it often comes at the price of taste, but the solution could lie just two hours north of the GTA in Georgian Bay, a prime location for fishing and a solution for those 100 Mile dieters.
A popular website for those on the waters north of the GTA, fishinggeorgianbay.com says that fish in the bay range from bass, pike, lake trout and salmon.
