Kona Kampachi: The Wonder Fish

Carnivorous fish still aren't the 'wonder fish,' despite marketing claims otherwise. Every time you move up a trophic level, you're still losing about 90% of the energy. Eating herbivores represents a 90% loss from their plant-based feed, so eating a carnivore represents a 90% loss of a 90% loss. So while eating these 'new' tuna is better than eating other (highly endangered) species of tuna, it still doesn't beat eating tilapia or catfish that have been sustainably farmed.

My favorite store-bought cookie is _____

I know this is horrible, but...those really, really soft round cookies that supermarkets sell in their baked good departments, the kind with florescent frosting and usually a few sprinkles. They come in plastic containers, and if I ever get one, I abandon all other food.

There is no fracking way I'm eating catfish sashimi...but Kona kampachi is divine and the way the farm the fish is excellent. Check out the sushi and sashimi I made with it.
