Are New Orleans restaurants telling you the truth about the shrimp on your plate?
from Newell Normand
New DNA testing found that nearly one in five sampled restaurants allegedly misrepresented imported shrimp as American wild-caught, despite Louisiana’s seafood labeling laws. State Representative Tim Kerner, Sr., who has led the fight for tougher seafood labeling laws and stronger enforcement, joins Newell to discuss why he says the problem isn’t imported shrimp, it’s misleading consumers, and what the state is doing to crack down on seafood fraud, protect Louisiana fishermen, and restore confidence in what’s being served across the state.
