Social/Political
Dolfinfish (aka: Dorado or Mahi Mahi) should be avoided if it imported from foreign sources that use 'longline' fishing techniques.  Those techniques have 'bycatch' issues because of the other species their set lines catch and kill.  The Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watchlist is opposed to this kind of fishing.
