rickjump1 0 #26 April 4, 2014 Amazon I had seen it raised. ... yucka pucka... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-10-11/asian-seafood-raised-on-pig-feces-approved-for-u-s-consumers.html South of Saigon, my counterpart watched me stare at the fish on top of my bowl rice. He thought it was funny. I knew it was the same fish I saw that morning while pooping off the dock. He knew I knew that it would be an insult for me to turn down this delicacy. Fish sauce, hot sauce.. it was good.Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tilapia, crab, lots of other delicious meat are poo-eaters EATERS it's what they do People even joke about such things, and I Quote a Joke: The day after his wife disappeared In a kayaking accident, an Anchorage man answered his door to find two grim-faced Alaska State Troopers. "We're sorry Mr. Wilkens, but we have some information about your wife", said one of the troopers. "Tell me! Did you find her?", Wilkens exclaimed. The troopers looked at each other. One said, "We have some bad news, some good news, and some really great news.. Which would you like to hear first?" Fearing the worst, Mr. Wilkens said, "Give me the bad news first." The trooper said, "I'm sorry to tell you, sir, but this morning we found your wife's body in Kachemak Bay .." "Oh my God!", exclaimed Wilkens. Swallowing hard, he asked, "What's the good news?" The trooper continued, "When we pulled her up, she had 12 twenty-five-pound king crabs and 6 good-sized Dungeness crabs clinging to her, and we feel you are entitled to a share in the catch." Stunned, Mr. Wilkens demanded, "If that's the good news, then what's the great news?" The trooper replied, "We're gonna pull her up again tomorrow."Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tkhayes 348 #33 April 5, 2014 There's a reason we eat tilapia...mostly because there is nothing else left and it can be farm-raised easily. 30 years ago, Canada shut down the Newfoundland/east cost cod fishery completely. Everyone complained. I had no idea why - they were no fish anyway. The stocks were decimated and they are only recovering in recent years, but still a fraction of what it used to be. overfishing is still a problem inside and outside the Canadian 200mile limit. So they started fishing pollack, which had started years earlier anyway due to low cod yields. We make fake crab sticks out of it, etc, but it was considered a junk fish prior to those years. Now it is what we eat (80's) Now after several other species have been decimated, here we are....eating tilapia. well, not me, but you get it. this is all that is left. We have destroyed the oceans already. Look at your grocery store freezer packages of pre-packaged fish, like codfish, swordfish, halibut. reasonably priced right? Now feel the size of those codfish filets. they are tiny....very very small. now look at where they are coming from....mostly China and eastern Asian countries. Why? Because they do not regulate the size of fish that can be caught, and they are basically dragnetting everything and anything off the ocean floor. why? Because they can and because we continue to eat it - capitalism at its finest. The only way it stops is by stopping the market. I live for seafood, but not in the past few years. I cannot bring myself to support a market that is destroying every living thing in its path. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raftman 12 #34 April 5, 2014 Next time you are at the grocery store pick up a package of frozen tilapia. 9 out of 10 are from CHINA. I look at labels and refuse to buy any food from CHINA! Haven't had tilapia in years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
