NOPE, Japan consumes about 50 percent of the worlds tuna catch every year.

Quote:

Of the total worldwide catch of 1.2 million tons of tuna, Japanese consume 600,000 tons: 500,000 tons as sashimi and the remaining 100,000 tons in cans. In Japan, 250,000 tons of tuna are imported. In short, Japan is the largest market for tuna in the world.

Unless you live in one of those counties, right?

By the way I've eaten whale, not that good. I've eaten it as sashimi and as whale bacon. The sashimi was god awful, and the whale bacon was only a little better.

Yeah, I realized my mistake a few seconds after I posted my post. So I immediately deleted my post (less than a minute after I made it, and before anyone had responded to it.) Of course, around here, that isn't fast enough to keep someone from pointing out your stupidity.

I know, I need to get a life.

No, you need to get a *scanner*. :lol:

Nope. It's digital.

And I'm not sharing my glowing white butt with the whole world! (just the people on the Greenpeace boat)

*ahem* which KetchiCAN are you?

Hey - somebody stole my idea!! I'm none of those cans...... I live in Sitka.

Plus my can was solo.
