Wait... it's not really Tuna? That's pretty messed up. [theatlantic.com]
The Philippines is a major exporter of tuna and tuna is relatively more affordable here than over there. Especially those smaller than 5kgs in size. The bigger it is, the more expensive it is.
@FuzzyMarineVet Those go for as little as $3/kg.
@FuzzyMarineVet that's $13 per kg!
