To be fair the seals are probably far less polluted than some cheap random chicken bought at the supermarket.

The fact that perfection is impossible to reach shouldn't make us abandon and do nothing about it.

Seals are quite high up the food chain so are one of the most polluted foods regularly eaten by humans. It's much safer eating herbivores than carnivores.
Not saying anything about not trying to find perfection. I'm only saying it's unlikely that anything you consume is free of contamination in 2020.
