went on a shopping binge—and not for the latest iPods or Levi’s. They
visited two dozen grocery stores, fish markets, and sushi restaurants
and brought home 77 fillets of Pacific red snapper.

Back at the lab, the students snipped off bits of flesh, digested them
with enzymes, and spun the DNA down in centrifuge tubes. They
identified the species of fish by sequencing segments of DNA. Their
results raised eyebrows all around.

Those generic strips of flesh might as well have been called marine
mystery meat. Sixty percent of them came from species other than what
was written on the label, including Pacific Ocean perch and tilapia.

Similarly, lots of games are played with the labeling of flatfish/
flounders, and country-of-origin labeling and country where processed
labeling. Then there are cultural practices. I will not knowingly eat
SE Asian or Chinese origin shrimp, or jumbo anything, often raised in
sewerage. If it is not US, Canadian, Mexican, Icelandic, Peruvian, NZ,
Aussi, Japanese or Chilean origin, forget it. If it needed irradiation
to be safe to eat, forget it.

You need to look close because renegade capitalists just love to put
those country of origin words in the smallest type imaginable.
