Before we worry about toxins, we must first worry about whether we are able to buy the meat. Greenpeace Japan may try to steal it once again.
I am sure the meat has been well tested to ensure it is safe, and Icelandic and Norwegian producers are much more trustworthy…

NuckingFutz, please enjoy your jokes. We who wish to eat whales will enjoy our whale meals.
