RE: Are you ready to eat jellyfish? Is it the next sustainable protein?

in #sustainability7 years ago

Oh for sure. We are decimating the natural fish eco systems. The research that I mentioned was showing that there are more ocean predators that actually eat jellyfish than we had previously thought... it also might account for what so many are dying from eating plastic as they cant differentiate between a floating bag or a jelly.

I read an article about a fishing trawler that almost capsized because the net they were pulling up was full of large jellyfish, some weighing upwards of 400lbs.

Who knows what is causing the blooms, warming oceans, over fishing, combination likely. We might be able to help, if it was more widely used. Lots of research going on in the food sector on make them more palatable. LOL, feels like the start of the TOFU jerky days (or TOFU leather) - heck of a lot better now... just a matter of time - Jelly Jerky :-)
