Excerpt
Green mussels or "tahong" and other shellfish are now safe for human consumption in the province of Bataan after the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources. (BFAR) lifted the ban it imposed in November last year. Imelda Inieto, provincial agriculturist, said BFAR found negative results for paralytic shellfish poison after three consecutive weeks of testing the shellfish taken from the coastal waters in the province.
