I am playing Junior hockey this year and I'm staying with a billet family they stock the shelves with no name brand canned tuna..! Anyways google doesn't seem to show useful information anymore so I can find nothing about the origin of this seafood! Can any body point me in the right direction because I have avoided seafood all together unless I know for certain it wasn't from the pacific.. Thank you so much!
Quoting: Tasty THC In Australia we are trying to bring in laws where it must be stated. Fresh fish shops must display country of origin. The problem we have is there are so many loops hard to trace. For instance, if fish is imported from New Zealand, a so called "safe" country to us it is labelled as NZ but the seller here is under no obligation to state whether it was imported into New Zealand from another place.
The other problem is restaurants. It is near physically impossible, too time consuming and adding to the cost for them to state where exactly everyone of their ingredients that goes into a meal came from.
It freaked a lot of Aussies out to hear that some of the fish being imported into Australia were grown in farm pens on rivers where the locals were to scared to drink the town water and the biggest import into that area was fresh Australian produced bottled water to be used as local drinking water. Hmmmmm
Point being, a lot of stuff here has been shut down because it is too expensive to produce because China is so cheap. We need these products and there are not many places to go to.
This is part of the reason why if China collapses, we rely on them so much we will have nothing for a while.
