Octopus, wild

Not listed in the FDA/EPA Advice about Eating Fish (revised October 2021), so no category is shown.

Composition per 100 g as eaten — cooked, or canned and drained. Mercury is FDA’s species mean, as FDA publishes it; for species FDA does not cover, the sample-weighted mean of the surveys listed. Dioxins + PCBs are survey means (or a median, where noted) per gram of fish as sold, in each survey’s own TEQ scheme. Not in FDA's mercury table or the FDA/EPA advice chart, so no FDA/EPA category is shown. The mercury cell is the sample-weighted mean of the surveys listed under it. Tagged wild: FAO reports no commercial-scale octopus farming anywhere.
