Florida Seafood Past and Present

from Florida Matters Hosted by WUSF Public Media

Historians and local old-timers say that once, Tampa Bay was overflowing with delicious oysters. And that some rivers, like the Manatee River, were once so full of mullet that they roiled the water and their noise would keep nearby residents awake at night. We're talking about seafood this week on Florida Matters. Florida Matters host Robin Sussingham talks with food historian Gary Mormino and restaurant owner Ed Chiles about changes in the state's seafood industry.
