WASHINGTON, Oct. 30 (UPI) -- Six months after the oil well blowout, Gulf of Mexico seafood is safe to eat, two federal agencies say.
Officials from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration stated Friday that fewer than 1 percent of 1,735 seafood tissue samples tested were positive for traces of dispersants used to break up the oil, the Los Angeles Times reported.
