    More ANSWERS:
    A. - Fish and shellfish can come from fresh or salt water, but are often
    just
    called seafood.

    A. - 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.
