First Horse(meat) Trading, Now 59% Of "Tuna" Sold In The U.S. Isn’t Tuna
Submitted by Michael Krieger of Liberty Blitzkrieg blog,
New Study Shows 59% of “Tuna” Sold in the U.S. Isn’t Tuna
This is just the latest revelation in the stealth inflation and food fraud theme I have written about frequently in recent months. The non-profit group Oceana took samples of 1,215 fish sold in the U.S. and genetic tests found that that 59% of those labeled tuna were mislabeled.
It seems that “white tuna” should be avoided in particular as “84% of fish samples labeled “white tuna” were actually escolar, a fish that can cause prolonged, uncontrollable, oily anal leakage.”
Oh and if you live in my hometown of New York City, you should pay particular attention:
Big Apple has big problem with seafood fraud: 94 percent of tuna and more than three quarters of sushi samples in New York City mislabeled.
Of the 142 fish samples collected in New York, 39 percent were mislabeled. New York City led the nation with the highest occurrence of mislabeled salmon as well as the highest amount of fraud among salmon collected from grocery stores and restaurants.
The full report from Oceana can be found here.
Bon appétit!

Why am I not surprised? What's next Ben's Beard is a fake too?
I'll have the sashimi with a side of oily anal leakage....thanks.
Escolar: Breakfast of Political Champions
Mislabeled - more Douplespeak. There is just no accountability in the system. Banks can commit no crime, even at the extreme of sloshing funds around for terrorist states, still no crime. We've been without a pilot for some time now, if we aint going down, we will hit a mountain eventually.
Thats why I always order salmon. I know it was safely farmed and fed with antibiotics and growth hormones so I have no worries.
You voted for Obozo the corrupt banksters' puppet you deserve to eat shit.
Hope and change bitchez!
Apparently, soda is more of a health issue than escolar fish.

It's okay to change. I was a meat-it-tarian till 1994. Then, one day, just like that... I was done and all has been well enough since, actually much, much better.

Note to self: eat more beef.
The beef with beef is all of the above(ine) and more.
Remember Oprah's beef with the burger? And how the texas ranch lobby made her eat crow (or was it beef?).
For everyone, highly recommended:

Eye-popping stuff. Perhaps anal leaking too....

I stay away from fish anyways. Even if it weren't for Fukushima, BP, etc., etc., serious mercury toxicity. Shame that.
Pork -- the other anal leakage meat.
Next thing you know they'll be telling us Soylent Green is people!
I am Chumbawamba.
How the fuck do you trick someone into eating fake tuna with sushi? There ain't that many red fish! Bonito is about all I can think of and if if the customers don't know the difference there then ... Marlin for fake Toro maybe...
It's not like somone snuck some odd meat or veg into sausages for christs sake
My motherinlaw's butt keeps leaking and she loves tuna.
Mislabeled fish or genetically modified vegan crap?
Hold on...I'm thinking about it.
I was eating sushi back when J.J. was slicing blue marlin at Fuji in Boca, and it is not red. Exquisite, but off-white. Haven't seen any on a menu since the late 80's. Guess commercial sale was banned.
Sorry Charlie...
SOYLENT GREEN!
Maybe they use artificial coloring
New York has the most Piscal fraud? I didn't mean to order the jewfish.
The Bernanke Bank Roll: Gefilte fish and rice wrapped in last week's New York Times. It'll blow out your assets.
Greenspan Salmon Sashimi: For every piece of real salmon, we add ten pieces of gefilte. No wonder they call me a prophet, I should have been a Jewish carpenter. "We've been doing this shit for ages! Hey, slice it a little thinner" he shouts to Juan, who is shamefully adorned in traditional Japanese garb.
Manhattan's finest will eat anything with a shit eating grin if it costs enough. Byproducts are written off as yesterday's residual Santorum. It couldn't happen to better people.
The ADL's new campaign to ban harpoons... too many little gefiltes are being killed in cold blood. Opposition is anti-Semitic. There's been surprising support in congress, and Malcolm O shed a dry tear on TV before he broke into the electric boogaloo.
Imagine just how many people from catchers, sellers, buyers, butchers, etc. who all know firsthand that this is going on? And how many people know first hand where the horse meat is coming from and how it's getting into the food supply? How may mother fuckers knew? These are conspiracies, are they not!? We can't trust govt., we can't trust the money, and now you can't trust your food. Another example is defeat of GMO labeling in Cali. We aren't allowed to know what the fuck we are eating!? This is no way to live! FFS, this is shit!
They're going to unveil the Chained Consumer Price Index soon, and none of this will matter to even the degree it does now (the BLS will weigh melamine fortified, moistened sawdust as an equivalent substitute for peanut butter for purposes of tabulating inflation).
Regular oily anal leakage will be a First World Problem by then.
Check out this link as to how/why you will eat whatever they will soon call "peas" and like it, bitchez.
I knew there was some reason I lost interest in freshman honors Phych, and B.F. Skinner's work was one of the core topics (I did pick up a few useful tidbit from studying William James, who, apparently, was the prof's hero).
As far as escolar, that 'super white tuna' you get in sushi bars is exactly that. The concern here is probably for people who feed their kids canned tuna 4 days a week. Those kids are already fucked 40 ways to Friday, and obozo care will just declare that 'oily anal leakage' is a normal human condition. From what I have seen of 20-year olds lately, it could be a feature at frat parties.
At the Albertson's near me they always have "Atlantic Salmon" which also says "Product of Chile". Whenever I ask at the counter which part of Chile is on the Atlantic coast, I get a blank look.
That would be the southern tip of Chile.
Beef or McMuck?
Remember when food was actually good for you? Shit!
I hear Australian kangaroo meat is "big" in China, they just don't know it yet.
Kangaroo: the other dog meat.
The only difference between beef and horse meat is that horse meat is leaner and tastes better. Donkey meat is also very tasty.
To be a Vegetarian does not improve your health. You know what is really important? Know your source! Where does your food come from? I try to buy as much as possible from local people I know. I also have a garden where I can plant everything. I used [Walahfrid] Strabos descriptions [Hortulus] to build my own garden. He was a German monk in the 9th century. I combine this with more modern plants, insights and techniques.
Take your time. It just needs to be a weekend. Is that much? A weekend per annum? To visit a local farmer and speak with them and to get a feeling about them. Yes, I know. You cannot watch them 24 hours and you never know 100 % - but get familiar with them, know how they do their stuff, where they get their seeds and so forth. Do you know the people that create your food? I know it is not possible for everyone. Most people tend to live in urban areas nowadays. I lived in a city too and it was messing up with my health. I was able to relocate to a more rural area.
Our problem is that we are heavily disconnected to our food. Something that was the most important thing for ancestors. Of course, there is always a chance that things go wrong. Soil can be contaminated, seeds can be contaminated, even a hunted deer can be contaminated [think about the impact Chernobyl left - boars are still contaminated in areas in Germany and Austria and other European countries] - or would you plant a seed in Bhopal? Or soil contaminated with Agent Orange in Vietnam, Laos and other places. Not to mention China or Fukushima.
It is getting difficult on our small planet to get clean food. Isn't that shameful? Ignorance is bliss, I guess.
I love animals, they're delicious.
Yes because there were so many good choices.
59% of the time, you get oily anal leakage every time.
ETA: And God only knows wtf is in the cat food I've been feeding Grandma.
At least Orly's $0.99/lb chicken breasts are probably safe.

Well at least Austin/Houston sushi bars are consistent

Fortunately the SoylentGreen is still first rate.
Makes Twinkies seem pretty good by comparison, doesn't it?
At least you don't have to worry much about cat food. No real reason to mis-label it. Gotta believe it's no worse than Dinty Moore Beef Stew (and costs a lot less).
Persistent oily anal leakage..... you gotta be kidding me. That's gotta be thrown in there to elicit the exact reaction it's gotten. It's gotta be hype. Can we get a voluteer to field-test this for us?
I have eaten it, and I shit my pants the next day. Fishmonger sold it to us, and I went back and gave that fucker hell. In his defense, he did say it was escolar. Worst part, DELICIOUS. The effect is the same as Olestra, which had a label that warned of "anal leakage"

Escolar: The World's Most Dangerous Fishmoral of the story...
Don't eat that fatty Esther.
Horse meat is actually higher cost, in terms of energy inputs and time to slaughter, than beef is, by a long shot. Ergo there can't be much of it being raised for that purpose. What is happening here is OLD HORSES end up being slaughtered for their various parts, meat included, and this ELDERLY horse meat is getting in the human food supply. Note that it is pretty common, in Europe, for humans to be eating elderly cattle too, old dairy cattle slaughtered at the end of their usefulness as dairy producers. Quality beef is rarely produced in Europe actually.
Confushi say...
eet sushi - sheet gushi.
That was very good in a very bad way.
Well played...
Why doesn't Uncle Ben just print some damn tuna!
I've seen Orly's avatar. There are no breasts located there. Must be another JPM or GS rehypothocation scam.
I wish I could find the "Coupin" for those $0.99/lb chicken breasts.........
In Europe, there's now another thing comming up....
dogmeat and ratmeat....
the dogs come from animal chelters where dogs are put to sleep. and now it turns out they sold the meat....
the rats are turned into cowfeed and pig feed. and this causes the animals to become kanibals which is not in their nature and cause anomalies in their genes. where do you think mad cow disease comes from...
"...oily anal leakage...."
WTF! you can't even make that shit up!

At about 34:00, he started telling some fun entomology stories–one of which ended with a statement that most mass-produced, pre-ground coffee, as well as chocolate, has roach parts in it.
For most entomologists or folks working in agriculture, this is not much of a shock. I have covered before how the FDA allows a wide variety of insect parts in most food products.
http://membracid.wordpress.com/2009/05/05/are-there-roaches-in-your-coff...
The story is from May, 2009, but somehow I suspect things have not changed much. In fact, it's probably alot worse now.
I read somewhere that for most foodstuff that are suspect, the manufacturers run a protein level on the end products. Over a certain amount, they know there are too many insect parts.
In my first biology class in college we purchased several brand of ketchup,looked at it under a microscope and counted fly parts. Then we had to calculate the ppm. I'm happy to report the fly part counts in every brand were within the USDA guidelines. Is everybody happy now?

I admit that anal oil leakage is bad. If there is one thing I can't afford to lose it is my anal oil
I suppose it explains the recent losses in spite of continued currency [petrodollar] devaluations: http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/03/01/markets-oil-idUSL4N0BT1QX20130...
If you read the labels on many pharma drugs you'll probably find "anal leakage" as a side effect. Fuck, I remember Howard Stern talking & mocking about it in the 90's (can't recall which drug(s) he was talking about by name).
If you really need to enjoy some anal leakage eat a bag of prunes and wash them down with a poverty pack of Bud or other piss water... followed by a tuna fish enema.
In 10 years researchers will actually discover this was all good for you
might have gotten a wee bit worse overseas...rat meat: no longer the hidden delicacies of the privileged cows and swine elite:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/18/rat-meat-london_n_1891832.html
...."The news organization discovered that Ridley vendors were not only selling "smokies" (blow-torched goat and sheep meat that is illegal under UK and European food laws), but also rat meat. Grasscutter rats, also known as cane rats (cat-sized rodents found throughout sub-Saharan Africa), were sold to undercover reporters by several butchers."

Neither is new.I unknowingly ate Alsation at an Indian restaurant in London once.
Place was busted the next day,with half the dog left in the refridgerator.
Knew an old timer that was a plant manager for a jam company.He said rats
often fell from the ceiling into the cooking vats.They carried on regardless.
Enjoy.
Since when did Indians start eating dog?
Also, why would they go through the trouble to track down a German Shephard, when mutts are readily available? For a pure bred, it's abour $700 unless it's just a couple of hicks breeding dogs to death.
Why would you call a German Shephard an Alsation in England anyhow?
The flavor would be pretty odd as well, at best it would taste like lamb, but a lot more gamey.
Do you mean a Frenchman from Alsace? Were you fed that?
I am a bit dubious of your story.
"a fish that can cause prolonged, uncontrollable, oily anal leakage."
Diane Feinstein's gun ban bill and face, come to mind when viewing the above quote from the article.
Now we all know why a large whole tuna fish in the Tokyo fish market gets auctioned off for hundreds of thousands of dollars or more. Make that a million
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-01-06/japan-sushi-chain-pays-record-1-76-million-for-tuna-at-auction.html
It is that rare. A clean, non radioactive, nice sized fish. And people pay a fortune for clean food now.
That tuna is not "clean" by any objective measure. It's loaded with mercury.
Just sayin'.
Mercury is prevalent in our oceans due to industry's treatment of them as a giant discharge containment pond, and tuna are high on the apex predator scale.

Ha! They met to work out a rescue plan and instead dropped protection in international waters! Typical of the rape and pillage economic system the entire world has adopted.
Just give it a few decades and many fish stocks will be history. I also read that plankton the basis for much of the sea life could be in trouble in the future due to acidification of the sea water. What keeps CO2 levels down is the oceans ability to suck up vast amounts, trouble is that begins to turn up as acid.
But then again both these stories could be part of a liberal hoax. The first tuna story comes from well know hoaxers Greenpeace, and the second is based on the vast world wide scientific hoax of CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning. Perhaps the liberals are so involved in their hoax that they are beginning to gain traction.
If both stories are hoaxes, then we can rest easy. Keep fishing and keep burning fossil fuels. We need both, but liberals hate both. Good sea food on the table and gas in your SUV are hated by the liberals.
I'll bet the happiest fish in the world are the ones just radioactive enough to get thrown back...
You think they check the fish; that's cute!
Sure....they're just making up all those deadzones from depleted dissolved oxygen.
You people are so dumb you deserve what's coming.

That's an interesting concept. Just yesterday I was noticing the waste generated by flossing my teeth and suggested to my dear wife that perhaps we should set a bowl by the sink to collect all those little bits of meat that usually end up on the mirror. We could once a month use them like bacon bits on our salads or baked potatoes, or save them up until there's enough to make breakfast sausage or even homemade snack sticks.............
Yes! In the new feudalism we'll be delighted to eat tooth scrapple from a wealthy family. Heck, any protein source would make the plebes happy...maybe even Soylent Green
During the famine under Mao, starving peasants would search through poop from well fed party official's horses to find undigested grains.
They also swapped dead family members with neighbors to avoid the problem of eating their dear departed gramps. Neighbors gramps was okay.

That's assuming they're better served, which would be pretty much wishful thinking on their part:
Back in the 80s, a bunch of Parisian top restaurants were caught red handed and finned for selling culture salmon as wild salmon - if you've seen both, you know it's impossible to mistake one for the other, in fact, it's easier to mistake white tuna for wild salmon, than this and culture salmon (wild one is pale with dry meat; culture is reddish, artificially (over)colored, and with softish, fat meat).
"84% of fish samples labeled “white tuna” were actually escolar, a fish that can cause prolonged, uncontrollable, oily anal leakage.”
WTF??? ANAL leakage :))), that must be ANALysts calling 15000 DOW in 1 month, too much white tuna intake??? :)))

I feel sorry and guilty. I have been feeding my cat escolar anal-oil-inducing fish all these years instead of genuine tuna. I have noticed a decrease in her ability to concentrate recently since adding the "tuna"...maybe even a little kitten dementia (or KD, as we say). The can says, "Wild Caught"...and..."nutritionally balanced"....
I feel so bad.
How do I break the news to my Pussy (cat)?
Uncontrolled anal leakage? Tuna sandwiches for everybody in congress! The good news is - less mercury.
Congress (and the administration, too) already has a problem with uncontrolled anal leakage. It just comes out of their mouths.

Yes, and in New York City where they have Bloomberg the "Food Nazi" where you can't get over 16oz Sodas, or Trans fat, but Hell do they care about "oily anal leakage"????
If that stupid FUCK Bloomberg really had a fucking clue, he would go after the food mis labelers. Only in Medical Services can you be allowed to not tell the price and charge for something you are not actually providing, like actual medical care or REAL FUCKING TUNA!

Army Drill Sergeant: It's All Over But the Cryin'
Legal Seafood has "Faroe Island Salmon" on the menu for a cheaper price than generic swordfish. Can you say bullshit? But in all fairness, it is actually salmon...
The real lesson here is that the seas have been overfished and all the good stocks are essentially wiped out...
Alaskan salmon is still sustainably harvested --- and unlike the mushy, artificially-colored crap coming out of British Columbia, it is strictly natural and all WILD salmon, too.
Wait till Pebble Mine is fully ramped up, that'll take care of those pesky wild fish up there...
The wild Alaskan goes for about $16-18 per pound here, it is immediately identifiable by the leaness compared to the farm raised Atlantic stuff...
I was fortunate to have pulled in about 100 lb. of wild salmon (sockeyes) last year --- ended up freezing half of them, and canning (jarring) the rest. Just had Panang curried salmon with brown rice for dinner last night --- something that was probably NEVER on the menu of any restaurant in Thailand!
I hope you daily kiss the ground where you live! I absolutely love wild alaskan king salmon. Fresh not frozen. It has a short season in San Diego and I pay $23/ lb when it's available. I don't care if I have to eat entrails for a month to afford it, it's my one yearly treat. We have some dear friends in the pacific northwest who send us smoked sockeye which is fabulous but nothing compares to the fresh king IMHO. I love thai but salmon must be enjoyed simply baked with a little pesto or butter to savor the flavor. Only spoiled rotten assholes whole can haul in 100 lbs can waste it on Thai. Okay, I guess my jealous is showing. ;-)
Miffed;-)
LOL! Yes, I guess I am spoiled.
Actually, salmon works surprisingly well in Thai dishes, the assertive flavor of it holding up very nicely against all the spices, garlic, etc. But I do very much like it also simply baked or grilled (my all-time favorite).
But if you think I am an asshole for "wasting" my salmon in a Thai dish, Miffed, you should hear some other Alaskans, especially a fair number of those who grew up here, who are "bored" with salmon, if they don't actually hate it! I had a good friend, who passed away a year ago, who grew up in a roadhouse here in Alaska which served salmon all the time, and she literally DESPISED salmon --- would not touch it with a ten-foot pole! She would even turn her nose up at the smoked salmon spread that I make every now and then. Myself, I could eat it almost every day, and believe me, I am grateful for and appreciative of every bite of it I can get.
I grew up on the coast of Washington, so I guess I was spoiled with salmon, also. But I wasn't ungrateful like my sister's in-laws were. Those philistines would pour commercial barbecue sauce on it, wrap it in foil and toss the package on the barbeque. Grilled salmon can be exquisite but their... creation was a sticky, nasty mess that fell apart in the process.
I'd be happy eating salmon every day, too.
Well, I'm tasting stomach acid from that comment! Dear lord, I try always to be gracious to any host serving me but that would be tough. I'd have to hope they had a dog and slip the mess steathlily under the table. Then when the poor creature went Into violent paroxysms and died, I'd just look stupid and shocked at the outcome. I'd made a few culinary blunders myself. This is why I keep dogs, cats, chickens and horses. Something will eat it. However your sister in law sound like she enjoyed it that way...egads!
Miffed:-)
I have to trust you on the salmon Thai thing. I can't afford to experiment. Thai cooking is tricky. I can make it alright but it never is transcendant. I complained about this to a Thai once and he laughed at me. " Thai is difficult, combinations of spices to meld favors is tricky, more art than science. What you think I a chinaman who throw any shit in a wok and dump it on a plate for you to eat!"
Miffed;-)

no anal leakage here..
If you do not get a BRAND name ALBACORE tuna, the rest is all shit.

Costco's KIRKLAND BRAND is the best Albacore white I have found.
But like all else, there is no in flation, 2yrs ago I was getting 4 cans for $7.99, now it's $9.99.
Guess Fukuishima played hell w/that market.
For years restaurants have been mislabeling the Slimehead calling it an "Orange Roughy."
They've been calling pink slime hamburger too......
Tip de Jour: grab a pack of fresh (looking) beef stew chunks, and have the butcher grind it for you. It'll be leaner, cleaner and cheaper than 'amburger (use French pronunciation for fun). So you won't have to ask: "Where's the beef?". Bon appetite.
I would like to buy a hamburger.......

I keep trying to tell you people... When it 'devolves' into JEW vs. JEW ~ all hilarity ensues...
yes, yes, but think of how awesome it is for the inflation calculations when it comes to BLS substitutions. when substituting items IN, if they don't exist, surely the implied price is 0, and hence an infinite amount of "chilean sea bass" (or whatever) can be consumed.
