Tuna Rights Day 2024
Yesterday I had sushi at Inakaya Watanabe in Saint Andrews with Sam. The food was plentiful and I enjoyed myself immensely. One of those things of which I partook was Bluefin Toro which is fatty tuna from a specific species. The market price was steep but I could not be restrained from a very nice portion.Just to be clear, I am not one to affix "rights" to animals beneath the human species. I feel that the animals were placed here for us to have dominion over and utilize as food in accordance with the Levitical food laws.
I also had unagi (freshwater eel), salmon, mackerel, several species of roe and a specialty called a "salad roll" consisting of a rolled cucumber stuffed with crab. Since I hadn't been at the sushi bar in a very long time the check was pretty much up there in the planetary region.
HOWEVER, this is ostensibly Tuna Rights Day. It is held each April 21 annually.

Sustainability, once a valuable adjective to be applied to everything which may be depleted has been hijacked by the idiot WEF and UN and as such is less valuable than it once was. It has been demoted to an excuse for their domination and curtailing of human rights which should always take precedence.
It's as though they believe they have been bestowed the divine right of kings and own the planet instead of being that stupid bunch of other human germs infesting it.
I note that the Japanese are not concerned for sustainability and will deplete the planet of everything sooner or later if they have their way. They also will never allow the WEF or UN to control them which is an aspect of their jurisdiction I greatly respect.
So the nutrient rich tuna is more than just part of the marine food chain. It a commodity to be protected from those who would eliminate them from the face of the earth by over fishing. Our pursuit of mindful consumption for sustainably-sourced tuna will go far to ensure they are around much longer.
Happy Tuna Rights Day.
