Senate Bill 533, introduced by Chance Wednesday, would require restaurant menus to carry a label on all seafood items identifying the country of origin

It would be nice if they would do that for ALL food, not just restaurants. I haven't eaten any seafood since I first heard about all the junk coming out of China. Unfortunately, I don't live close to the ocean so I can't catch my own, or at least know a local market that buys from local fishermen.

Btw, thanks for all the China pings! :o)

We live in a fishing port.

State requires the seafood be labeled and not much is local.

Have to go to the one place that sells only local/USA Pacific Coast from the F/V. Not cheap.
Twice the price of the Asian/import seafood.
