Would you still eat sharkfins?

Sharksfin soup is essential to keep the stomach satisfied and the heart content. Laughing

there shall be no shark's fin at my wedding ..... i don't support the killing of sharks either ... i've not touched shark's fin since i took up diving 8 years ago ....

there's a more practical reason why i won't touch shark's fin too ....

Sharks are top end, Apex predators, which means that all the accumulated toxins of the fishes they eat are stored on their bodies .... you know for a while shark's fin from thailand was banned because of too high a mecury content ? .... I wouldn't want to be ingesting heavy metals and toxins and risking potential birth defects for my future little Fatums for something which is essentially tasteless cartilage .......

think of that the next time you're staring at a bowl of shark's fin soup ...

SMAPLionHeart SG

cookiejos SG

this is great.... i dont want sharkfin.. but i want the soup w/o sharkfin.... so nice.. yum yum

shade343 SG

The animal we eat is not savaged in a similar way to the sharks. Besides the animal we eat are meant to be food. Not sharks.

Add 3 teapoonsful into a 200ml of hot water, same effect. Tastes just as good on its own, no, not the water. Laughing

ditzy SG

We eat fish, fish is food, sharks are fishes. Laughing

Fatum SG

okie ... fair enough .... of course one can argue that the chicken you ate didn't quite commit suicide ..... so unless one is totally vegetariab one's being hypocritical ....
fine .....

but how about the fact that heavy metals will have an effect on your libido ...... Twisted Evil ... that solves people's worry about heavy metal producing birth defects in their children .... cos they won't be able to produce any in the first place eh ....

Honeybunz SG

actually I don’t think there is any nutritional value in sharks fins.

SMAPLionHeart SG

if wolverine eat also nothing what, got metal inside his body

Mr. Green

SMAPLionHeart SG

eat honeybunz got alot of nutritional value

ditzy SG

My kelloggs cereal box says the cereal is packed with zinc and iron. Are they light metals? Laughing

Fatum SG

*flips backwards in chair ....... Shocked

Rolling Eyes ............ Confused

oh well .... but seriously, think of what i've posted .... the flavour from shark's fin soup comes from all the ingredients they use .... not from the shark's fin itself .... if you don't believe me, try going to a good vegetarian resturant and ordering their mock shark's fin soup .... they taste exactly the same really .... that's all the "shark's fin" i eat now ......

shade343 SG

whats the percentage? 100%? Laughing

SMAPLionHeart SG

yes

shade343 SG

The flavor is ajinomoto... Laughing

Since 1997, after watching documentary on how sharks are discarded fin-less into the ocean by trawlers hunting sharksfins, I never touched a single bowl of it till today.

Just you imagine: Suppose there exist a higher-being, bigger, smarter than us humans, and they like to eat our arms and legs for soup. Just imagine yourself caught alive, and they cut off your arms and legs and throw on the roadside to die.

Like that? Like dying like this?? Then go ahead and eat sharksfins!!!
