7 Of The Most Faked Seafoods In The World | Big Business Marathon | Business Insider

[@HS-sf6tu]

I'm Indonesian, and I remember how the government srarted a crackdown on illegal fishing ships on our waters. The Government blew up so many fishing ships, many of the ships were either from China or Vietnam. After that more fishes started to go into our local markets. I remember the price became much more affortable and supply increased. I don't think the government still doing the blow ups nowadays, however we really need to step up even more against these illegal fishing industries and for more sustainable options too.

"Mislabeled" implies that someone made a mistake. These people know what it is made out of, so that makes it a crime.

[@PatriciaAustin-tc1hs]

[@FullOfMalarky]

It does not imply a mistake. You can intentionally mislabel something.

[@riverlady982]

The label they showed saying 'Wild raised Salmon' or 'Salmon raised in the wild' has the same energy as clothing belts labeled 'Genuine Leather' that put most real leather belt makers like me out of business over paying $5 to $10 dollars less for a garbage product that is the cheapest and thinnest leather on each side from a questionable source with pressed cardboard, or things worse for the inviroment in the middle, and polyurethane or PVC finishing the sides. If you pay a little bit more you don't see the shiny smooth sides instead you see the belts stitched together all the way down the length on each side of the belt with a seem in the middle. Then people wonder whether belts or even purses that this is done with don't keep their shape for more than a few months to a year and men wear belts out sometimes within 4 weeks to 3 months on average. They are bad for the environment and not sustainable because they constantly have to be replaced and often use products that are bad for the environment and come from crude oil byproducts. I make belts from the hides of cow's that go to slaughter for meat anyways and will last you 10 to 20 years or more, at least 5 years if you wear it and a tool belt nearly every day in all weather with no care for it beyond hanging it up to dry when you get a chance.

[@Mnbvcxzlkjhg1]

In Germany we got a similar thing with milk. To experience options are "Heumilch" meaning hay milk and than there is "Weidemilch" meaning pasture milk. While Heumilch means that the cows are out on the meadow if possible by temperature and weather and have to eat hay when they can't go out. Weidemilch on the other hand pretends to be Heumilch and just sounds nice, but has no regulations. Could be 24/7 in the stall without even a window or fresh air and only eat grain an soy. Possibly even GMO grain and soy. I mean likely.

[@o1ecypher]

stop calling it "Mislabeled", lets call it for what it is, "Fraudulently Labeled"!

[@ZimkaLulu]

Exactly 💯 . I thought the same

[@KKOPPONG]

It “can” be mislabelled at times especially if the value chain has a lot of participants. I’m South African & let’s just say I run a supermarket. A fish caught in Canadian waters is sold to a wholesaler on Canadian mainland and packaged for wholesale distribution in Africa. That’s flown down and sold to manufacturers and processors in South Africa, they then pass it down to different companies that package it and label it for different supermarkets that have ordered the fish in its true form or different derivatives/variations of the fish. By the time it gets to any supermarket there’s well over 5 companies that have participated and probably 2-3 companies that have packaged it on its way in whatever form it’s actually in. Only one of these has to be corrupt and the whole operation is screwed. In places where the supply is limited it’s worse because you don’t have other options to source or other examples to compare quality and price.

I’m a long time Florida Keys resident who has caught and eaten a fair share of Mahi. Last time I drove down to Key West a new place opened that I tried. They were serving a blackened “mahi” but it was certainly tilapia. When I complained after one bite the waitress talked to the kitchen who came back saying it was mahi. I still sent it back, so they had to call the owner who wanted a picture of the dish (I only took one bite) and they gave me a refund on the dish. I paid for my beer and left. Lesson for these cons, it works on tourists but locals know the difference.

[@stunter2875]

I really hope the $25,000 for a Salmon license goes back into keeping a healthy and sustainable ecosystem for Alaska for generations to come

[@locustrider4525]

I think the optics is more in a sense of barriers of entry for fishers all around to go there. That way forces the market to only have a few fisherman, in order to make any profit.

[@Quizack]

That's on the very low end for a salmon fishing permit too. In some parts of Alaska, Salmon Fishing Licences can range from between $15,000, all the way up to $180,000, depending on where exactly you want to fish, and how (trolling, line fishing, etc). I think it's because only a certain amount of people are allowed to fish in a certain area, and some areas are much more plentiful than others, so it drives the prices up or down, depending on the season and how it has been performing.

[@nikkiewhite476]

Alaska is still harvesting to much salmon! They take so much that the native peoples in the Yukon have not been taking their subsistence fishing rights for years. The gov of the Yukon has massive conservation programs running to try to keep stocks from completely crashing.

This has been going on since the beginning of time. Unless you catch and clean your own fish, you're rarely gonna get whats advertised.I grew up in the Keys from the 50s -80s and we ate fish when I was young to supplement costs of food. Most fish have a different texture and you can tell BUT, it has to be a really different type of fish to be able to tell the difference. Red Snapper is probably the easiest faked because there are many different kinds of snappers. Mahi is easy to recognize if you are used to eating it, but can be sold using well-bled amberjack.

[@L83467]

i would argue that if you purposefully eat cheap fish, like sardines, then you are definitely going to get whats advertised

some fish like snapper and sole have many different variations, most you wouldnt be able to tell unless you saw the fish whole, but theyre all sold under a generic name for clarity and marketing. Something as small as a different color tail, spotting, can indicate a different species- but its all sold under a 'family' name.

I worked on a fishing boat off Long Island NY in the 60's and we were employed by NY fisheries to catch sharks when the populations got very high. When we got to the dock restaurants would take the shark meat and I asked the guys what they were used for, they told me to make fake scallops. We cut steaks and cut them with a round cutter to make them look like scallops.

Very informative. I had no idea that they can counterfeit seafood like shown. My mom's brother was a lobsterman and I remember him bringing in boxes of live lobster for when we visited our relatives in Maine. When I think of those trips, I remember playing with the lobster on the lawn at my aunts home. Back then, they used wooden pegs to lock the claws. I can recognize real Mainers on how they consume the lobster. They eat everything! Including inside the head and inside the carapace as well as the tail, claws, and legs. My mom used to try and trick me to eat those innards by calling it "stuffing" like a freaking turkey! But she loved that stuff. LOL. We'd also get fresh clams and scallops. It was a real lobster boil.

[@bigstyx]

It’s not water quality issues that the problem it’s over fishing let’s all be honest I live in a fishing community and there’s 200 commercial boats that go out every day. How is that sustainable? It has nothing to do with water it has to do with the amount of licenses that the states are giving out, which is ridiculous, I believe there should be moratorium on all fisheries for five years And that is for commercial licenses

[@BD-lq4id]

really makes you wonder... if the average consumer can't tell the difference, perhaps the market value of the "real" seafood is largely overinflated.

[@KaitouKaiju]

The value isn't always just in the taste but in where it comes from and how it's raised.

[@Ninus316]

Not being a food snob, like an ancient Roman; if it tastes good then I am fine with it especially when it comes to seafood. Some things are just too silly to be expensive and/or eaten like sturgeon roe. FFS it's fish eggs, and it is nasty. Anyone who says different as in "it has nice piquant notes and a sweet flavor of whatever" is just eating it because someone else said it was a delicacy (ie; boy are you somebody if you eat this shit). Some foods might be a delicacy, but that doesn't make them edible, nutritious, or worthwhile to eat. I mean, Cesium 137 is rare, and you can eat it, but it would be silly and deadly to do so, BUT think of the celebrity you would have for being able to say you have sampled this delicacy... until your flesh sloughed off, and you died in mind numbing paroxysms. DE-LISH!

[@WeAreAllOneNature]

Good point.

[@joesr31]

Its not all about the taste though. Sometimes its the nutritional value as well.

[@pyroman7196]

That’s the same as saying uranium is tremendously sweeter than sugar so we should use uranium rather than sugar. A lot of these are priced based on benefits vs lack of risks. The average person not being able to tell simply means they haven’t had the quality one before, just the scam one. I eat salmon very regularly and I can tell you after farmed salmon for a few days I find my skin and hair gets oily fast, their fat content is wildly high and their flavour isn’t the same, wild caught fried in butter has a very distinct taste as where farmed just tastes “fishy” and there’s nasty blots of congealed fat all over the fish as the heat melts it out.
