Well bugger. I live in Germany now, and salmon imported from Norway is disgusting. I miss Scottish salmon.
The wild ones are fine, only farmed salmon tastes boring.
Hmm. People often have historically had strong preferences for more-expensive wine, but when put to the test in blind tests, price comes pretty decoupled from ranking. I wonder if anyone has done that for farmed and wild salmon?

Washington Post ran a blind test in the US and found that there was indeed a difference between farmed and wild rankings...but they found that farmed salmon ranked higher than wild salmon.
And the top-two ranked entries were the two farmed Norwegian condenders, with the cheapest one coming out on top.
The Scottish entries took positions #3 and #5.
