Why are seafood sales declining?
If you follow what some of the pundits are saying, it is due to inflation and that seafood product prices are higher than other proteins. Others say that seafood is not top of mind when it comes to cooking at home or even at a restaurant. Some have alluded to the possibility that due to the amount of seafood imported into this country, it is unsafe to consume. Are they correct? In my opinion, no.
