Just like chicken wings were given away or thrown in the garbage by butcher shops because they looked at the results as mere bones. Now people can't get enough of chicken wings. Now the cost has gone up & on all dinner tables & at all outings. The butchers didn't know the value of those heavenly bones..God's gift to this world. Stay in the light & love! ❤love❤ heavenly bones

Dammit, if only my Korean father-in-law had invested in a seaweed farm instead of a pig farm in the 90’s.

한국에 살고 있습니다만 요즘 인기가 많아져서 김수출이 역대 최고를 찍고 있습니다. 국내에서 가격도 꽤나 올랐구요 .. 김에 부정적이신 분들이 보이는데 짭짤한 소금이 가미된 김을 드셔보시면 생각이 달라지실 겁니다. 한국에선 땡초김이 유행이에요

It’s so delicious to snack on, we even have it in Canada! There’s bbq, garlic etc 😊
Nori is honestly one of my FAVORITE snacks to eat! I would much rather eat seaweed sheets than potato chips, or any other crunchy, salty snack. And it is SO much healthier than a deep fried potato snack!! Thank God for Asians and their wonderful foods!!!!

Most commercial nori sheets arent really healthy actually as they are processed with added preservatives and flavorings in addition to being pumped with oil, not much different from potato chips. As usual, both nori and potatoes are best eaten when prepared by yourself.

be careful eating too much. Iodine toxicity is a thing. Also, they usually have a lot of sodium. But yet I think probably better.

Hair algae! Us reefers use it to remove excess nutrients from the aquarium.
Somehow it feels like there's probably a more efficient way than the traditional method of harvesting by hand

Theres not, it's a super delicate plant, and if you pull to much there will be less the next harvest year
This is how every rare cultural gem gets commodified & bougied. Rich showboats trying to find the fanciest foods, whether they like it or not. Until locals can't afford to eat their favourite delicacy, vs selling it. Brings wealth to the small towns at least. But even that probably divides the majority of profit to Western importers
I just had seaweed for a snack after dinner. Haha It was too good to the point where I had to finish 3 containers.
Feel bad for the locals. Another persons greed is taking one of their sources of food

It's called capitalism, get used to it. She found a way to make money for herself. She's not evil, she's making a living. You don't even know how sustainable those plants really are to assume the locals are dying from her business. It's one of the most surprising rise of an unknown food on the market today. Research it before you call a yt short evil.
