Prawns…

a good article here about the intensive farming of prawns in Asia so that we can have our curries and stir fries.  It contains all the familiar plot elements of globalisation and capitalism - environmental destruction, small farmers getting trampled, pollution, intimidation, even killings.

I delivered a yacht for a man who got rich selling frozen food, and his advice about eating intensively farmed prawns from aboard was simple: don’t.  Buy locally sourced or not at all if you care about your health.
