Sushi, prior to the mid-twentieth was a luxury food eaten exclusively during special occasions, and Japanese chefs never used to serve bluefin tuna in sushi bars (Kurokura, Takagi, Sakai, Yagi, 2012). The tuna had too strong of a taste for the Japanese palette who preferred milder species of fish, however this all changed post-WWII. Japan underwent a rapid transformation from a war torn state into a global economic power in a matter of decades. By 1980, Japan had become the second largest economy in the world, following only USA (Dicken, 2011). The proliferation of the middle and upper class in Japan equated in a greater demand for sushi in everyday diet. The 1970’s marked a new epoch in sushi culture as the quest for

Many people have found ways to improve the quality of our diet and have completely innovated the world of food. This new revolution of food seeks to enhance our quality of life and to make food as beneficial as possible.

This change causes much discomfort among people who have grown accustomed to the food they see everyday, and they do not want to fix something that has not been broken.

“A single Pacific bluefin tuna sells at auction for more than $100,000” (Arnold, 2012). The Pacific bluefin tuna is one of the most popular fish consumed in the world eaten mainly in sushi. In 2010 alone, the United States consumed twenty-four percent of the tuna consumed by the entire population.

Too many people pick up food products off of the shelves and put it into their shopping cart without knowing what exactly it is or what the product has been through. After watching an absolutely disturbing documentary called "Food Inc." I started to feel strongly about the problems of the Food Industry. The problem is that our food is no longer being produced in an all American farm, but in dirty abusive factories. Not only is the food unhealthy for us after all of the processing, but the workers and animals are being abused. I know that I single handily cannot change all of the problems with the twisted food industry, but I know that I can do my part by making others aware so that they can make sure that they can make fully informed decisions about what they are putting into their carts at the grocery store and eventually into their bodies.
