We went on an Alaskan cruise last summer and Alaskan King Crab was $75/pound...IN ALASKA!
One restauranteur explained that there were prohibitions against taking Alaskan crab to let the populations rebound, so the “Alaskan” king crab was imported from Norway.
Talk about a major disappointment!
Also in the past, almost 75% of our King Crab was from Russia. So yes, of course, the US government stopped allowing it to be imported.
This war has impacted me personally in at least three ways. It was really disappointing that the only Antonov-225 was destroyed, I really like King Crab, and Russia used to sell MiG-29 edge of space rides for 20k.
All very disappointing.

Dealt with the same pricing issue with salmon in Seattle. The same salmon in Seattle was $28 per pound compared to $15 per pound in Maine.
