I tried Asian shrimp years ago. Like cardboard compared to local. I can buy shrimp (small) caught off the shores of NB that taste great but I buy ONE brand from Caraquet, NB that is cooked in "lobster juice". ME ZON ME ZON she's some shockin good! My clam chowder with local bar clams ($$$), shrimp, haddock, etc... beyond heaven. Costs me about $3 a bowl but it's a once in a while treat that can't be beat. At Xmas, I throw in local lobster and scallops (I lightly fry the scallops fist).

No way I shall eat anything from the Pacific Ocean until Fuckedupshima gets sorted. Maybe I am wrong but that's MY deal.
