“While not by any means is every imported shrimp served in a restaurant contaminated with dangerous antibiotics, there is currently no way for a consumer to know. We are forced to essentially play Russian roulette.”

"There is 1.8 billion lbs. of shrimp consumed annually in North America, 5-6 million lbs. are farmed. We are importing all of our consumption. Inland fishing gives you the opportunity to farm properly. To farm responsibly. To control every aspect of what you're doing."

Our founder Marvyn Budd had the honour of representing aquaculture at the Terroir Symposium yesterday, on a panel alongside experts Dr. Paul Uys, @nedbell, and @fisherfolkto where they discussed the future of sustainable seafood and the differences between farmed vs. wild seafood

[The Foodies Group @thefoodiesgroup]

50% of the seafood we consumed last year was farmed. That number will go up to 65%. There is good and bad farmed, as well as good and bad wild. Sourcing/distribution/traceability is key. @nedbell @TerroirTalk #Terroir2019

"Studies have found these microplastics in everything from supermarket seafood to drinking water, but scientists don't yet know what all that means for our health."

75% of BC respondents prefer an immediate ban on open net-pen fish farms, a poll from Mainstreet research finds. The proposed aquaculture regime for Canada provides a good opportunity for the government to transition the industry to land-based aquaculture. https://t.co/Y7KGqj9tmW

"The shrimp you find in the freezer aisle is exactly the same as most of what’s presented as “fresh”—it just hasn’t been sitting around on a bed of ice all day."

Is wild caught REALLY better than farmed shrimp, farmed right?
