    Just watched that whole video. While I've never had shark fin soup, I never understood the barbaric practices behind it before. Thanks for sharing.

    Wow, i knew it was bad but this post was really eye opening as far as just how bad. Sickening, especially considering it doesn't even taste good and is only eaten as status symbol.

    Europeans eat Caviar all the time. Each spoonful is pretty much hundreds of not quite but soon to be endangered species sturgeon that will never live. Its pretty much salty... as opposed to mostly flavourless shark fin.

    Its human nature. Atlantic cod was the tastiest fish out there, and I'm sorry for the future generations that will never taste one. I had no idea at the time that it would ever end as they were pulling millions of tons of them out of the ocean. But damn, they were the perfect fish and chips. It does make me wonder what some of the extinct varieties of Bison tasted like.

    Handing a $2 bill and getting a plate of Altantic cod and chips... Jeebus I miss those days.

    Well, asians pay quite a hefty sum for fin - Europeans pay a hefty sum for Caviar. At least with the shark fin you can make quite a few bowls with it. With Caviar, you've basically killed off a few hundred sturgeon.

    Asians pay extra for varieties of tofu, arguably - all varieties are flavourless to the European palate. Salmon eggs soaked in brine is a rough estimate of caviar, and I have difficulty telling the difference because of my salt-insensitive palate.

    Me, I just finished off a seven pound ham shank (98 cent/pound superstore this week) in three days. Not that I ever in my craziest nightmare expected bacon to hit $10 per pound ($8 for a 375 gram package)

    I'm guessing OP is talking about this:

    http://www.calgarysun.com/2012/11/22...hes-were-found

    While I'm not a fan of Globefish, I've worked in the restaurant industry, and every restaurant I've worked at suffers from this. Most restaurants perform monthly fumigation and cleanup, so it all depends when inspections happen, and some get caught with bugs. It's nothing out of the ordinary.

    I am confused by the Shark Fin Soup comment though. Why would a Japanese restaurant serve a Chinese dish?

    Rage is right, and I too have worked in restaurants with much the same experience. I live close to an Original Joe's, they have a pest truck parked out back at least once a month, it shows they are on top of the situation.

    The OP needs to lose massive user points, as this is taking a local business reputation and turning it into his troll food. He'd be turfed for making a comment in some areas for far less. No wonder he is on my banned list.

    In the Archie Bunker spirit of your post, asians should be called orientals.

    Because he wants to be inflammatory.

    I can't believe people are feeding the troll. And speaking of trolls.....

    Dunno. Was at Globefish Kensington about 8 years ago and saw Sharkfin soup on the menu.

    Never went back.

    Perhaps they've dropped it since. But even 8 years ago enough was known about the evils of SFS that it was disgusting that they'd even serve it.
