    “Nutritionally, it is far more efficient than meat”

    TIL Fish is not meat…

      Is it not common in most places to differentiate land animals (meat) from sea animals (fish)? I get your point that there’s no real distinction to make philosophically, but it’s customary and most people understand it?

        No? The only times I’ve seen fish treated as somehow not meat is for religious reasons. Generally you’d categorize the meat by the type of animal, such as beef, pork, chicken/poultry, or the broad categories like fish or shellfish.

        Maybe it just depends on if you live someplace that’s very religious or not?

          I think going to the restaurant located inside my local church was a mistake

            Lol, you say that, but catholic churches are very much known for their fish fry fridays in my area.

          I’ve definitely seen and heard the phrase “meat or fish” used where I live. I doubt it’s just a Finnish thing

        I dunno, I just assumed that anything that bleeds when you kill it is meat.

      Even to his day, I still meet “vegetarians” who eat fish. Usually boomer age.

        I once met a vegetarian when i was only 8 and wasn’t even sure what that was. She explained that she doesn’t eat meat, just fish and chicken. Instead of just asking a real adult, i made shit up in my brain like: fjsh aren’t meat and neither are chickens, because their meat is white or some shit.

          is there not a term for that? What do you call someone who chooses not to eat red meat? (Not for religious or cultural reasons)

        My FIL is going through some medical issues and considered going mostly vegetarian to try and reverse the (irreversible) organ damage he was told he had. His plan was just fish, eggs and poultry, with red meat just once or twice a week.

        I’m not often speechless.

    China must be lying about its aquaculture output, otherwise why are they fishing the oceans clean?

    Time to start sinking fishing vessels.

      As long as we also carpet bomb meat and feed farms since the environmental impact of beef is much larger

          I read that infographic passing for an article.

          The environmental effect of beef is much higher than that of fish.

        Much harder to do that without getting caught by governments. Sinking fishing boats in international waters seems comparatively safer.

      It’s stupidly frustrating. I want to read the fucking article… Not scroll for 2 hours to get to the next paragraph.

      I really disliked how they showed heavily pivoted globe instead of a map to show china’s activities. They went for maximum style points and didn’t care about my ability to read and interpret the data.

    An entire article asking “why are there no fish?” And never mentions climate change, polluted waters, and human overpopulation.

    What a joke.
