    ANSWERS:
    Fish and shellfish can come from fresh or salt water, but are often just

    called seafood. Most seafood is wild caught and farm-raised fish is one

    of the fastest growing commodities in the US. If you consider plants,
    such as kelp or nori seaweed, a title like aquatic food products might
    encompass all of the above. Some cookbook authors have used the term
    water foods.

    We are also pleased to announce that the Commission on Dietetic
    Registration
    has awarded 12 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits from the
    American Dietetic Association (ADA) for this workshop.
