Due to Labor Day and the new realities of being a part-time administrator as Associate Department Head in my department, I find that I owe everyone a website of interest. The website I would like to offer up may be helpful on a purchasing class or a food module on principles class, etc.
Food & Water Watch (http://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/) analyzed over 100 different fish and shellfish to create the only guide assessing not only the human health and environmental impacts of eating certain seafood, but also the socio-economic impacts on coastal and fishing communities. They then created this purchasing pocket guide for free to help consumers make wise food purchases when it comes to seafood. Just download and carry with or put online for students (save paper) by visiting: http://documents.foodandwaterwatch.org/SeafoodCard2010.pdf
I reviewed the document and found it to be a most useful guide for seafood purchasing. Hope you agree! In case interested, the image above is a shout out to our seafood producers and those who teach it along the gulf. Show your love and purchase some for yourself or your lab!
