PLEASE PARDON CROSS-POSTING
Dear Food/Nutrition Educator:
How much do you know about seafood? Can you answer these questions?
Q1. – What is seafood, exactly?
Q2. – What is one of the fastest growing food commodities in the US?
Q3. – How would you like to learn the answer to these and other
questions
regarding aquatic foods in a hands-on, relaxing way? Did I mention – AT
THE BEACH?
A3. - Well, save the following dates and send us an email or mailing
address and plan to join us on November 2-5, 2004 in Lewes, DE for

Sincerely,
Doris Hicks

More ANSWERS:
A1. - Fish and shellfish can come from fresh or salt water, but are
often
just called seafood.
A2. - 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.
