Looks like fish to me. Perhaps they were running out of red dye to feed what looks like an east coast-type 'farmed' salmon. It is a bit pale even for the salmon around here but I don't know the salmon in con delight's part of the world. I doubt it is arctic char or trout but I could be wrong - looks a bit thick for those. Smoked cod and haddock around here has that colour exterior but the interior is not pink. I hope he comes back to tell us more soon.
