I thought Salmon were actually gray on the inside? Is this a farm raised versus wild thing?

Gray?? 🀒 Even the farm raised should be a light pink before it’s cooked.

Whitish gray, like a lot of fish and bird meat. The pink comes from their natural diet, which they don't have in captivity, so farms dye the meat artificially so it looks like wild-caught salmon

If the color of the meat turns you off, wait until you think about the fact that it's a dead body

Just to add to this, the artificial colour is added to the fish's diet. They also adjust the colour depending on the market. For example, apparently Japan prefers a bright pink colour, while Italy and France prefer a less bright pink colour.
