Huffington Post: The High Cost Of Seafood Fraud (INFOGRAPHIC) Posted: 07 Aug 2013 09:50 AM PDT Americans now eat 50 percent more seafood than they did 50 years ago, according to a new report by Oceana [pdf] that details the cost of seafood fraud on consumers' wallets.

"Swapping a lower cost fish for a higher value one is like ordering a filet mignon and getting a hamburger instead," said report author and Oceana senior scientist Margot Stiles in a press release. "If a consumer eats mislabeled fish even just once a week, they could be losing up to hundreds of dollars each year due to seafood fraud." Read More... More on Food
