We find substantial mixing of the connected and disconnected contributions so that the lattice result that the disconnected contribution to the nucleon is large does not imply that the $\bar{s} s$ content is large. This has implications for dark matter searches.contribution to Lattice2001(matrixelement)High Energy Physics - LatticeThe strangeness content of the nucleontext
