Lab tests conducted for the New York Times found so much mercury in raw tuna,
that a regular diet of a few pieces a week could be a health hazard.

Levels were found to be so high in five out of 20 places that the F-D-A may sue
to get the sushi off the market.

The Times says most of the tuna tested was blue fin.
