Read articleAmericans consumed an average of 151⁄2 pounds of fish and shellfish in 2015—a 0.9-pound increase from the previous year, according to recent data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. That’s still about 101⁄2 pounds below the U.S. dietary guidelines, which recommends eating 8 to 12 ounces of seafood each week (equal to two to three meals a week).
