12 Dishes You May Want To Avoid At Red Lobster - Daily Meal

Red Lobster's signature Admiral's Feast features an outrageous amount of deep-fried food on one platter. This dish comes with fried bay scallops, clam strips, flounder, and Walt's Favorite Shrimp. You also get a choice of two sides, which does present an opportunity to toss in some steamed broccoli or a side salad. However, if somebody is already diving off the deep end by ordering the Admiral's Feast, they may decide to go all in and order fries or Red Lobster's Bacon Mac & Cheese instead.

If all that sounds good to you, it's important to know exactly what you're getting. The Admiral's Feast adds up to an alarming 1,680 calories. You also get about 215% of your daily value of sodium, with 4,940 milligrams, 126% of your fat intake, 50% of recommended carbohydrates, and 65% of your daily cholesterol. For those who are generally healthy eaters, this may not pose immediate harm to your health. However, regularly putting away that much sodium, for example, can have detrimental health effects, per the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

On top of the high calorie count, the Admiral's Feast doesn't give much variety in terms of flavor or texture. Every bite you take is some variation of deep-fried seafood, which is all crunchy, salty, and oily. For the toll this entrée takes on your wallet and waistline, it's probably one you should skip.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu...

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles. From one year...
