Why Bluefin Tuna Is So Expensive | So Expensive | Business Insider

A tuna once sold for $1.8 million, but you can get cans of tuna fish for less than $2 at the grocery store. So, what's the difference? Bluefin tuna can be very expensive depending on where you buy it and which part of the fish you are eating. We spoke with the chef at Shoji in New York, Derek Wilcox, to find out why the fish is so expensive.

    The tuna graduated from Harvard law school, got married to his high school sweetheart, they had 3 children, his life savings and property ownership was far above and beyond anything previous generations had even seen, so it’s safe to say this “tuna had a good life”. Right up to him being caught and sold to the highest bidder.

    As a commercial bluefin tuna fisherman from Maine, I’ll have to say 20-40 a lb for the angler is only a dream now a days. Over the past few years I’d say the average has dropped from 15 down to as low as 5 a pound depending on market. Covid has definitely not helped, but managed to get 8 per on a 350 lbs dressed BFT. Great informative video. Wish more people knew about this market and where the fish come from.

    A human worth in it's fluid, material, and organ value is worth from 42 to 131 thousand dollars on average. The numbers have a lot of range because you aren't allowed to sell organs but only donate them. A human worth in its labor value is even more than its physical worth but has an even larger range of value in general.

    When I was a teen and went deep sea fishing off the coast of Baja California I was the only one on the boat for the day that caught a bluefin. A few dozen yellowfin were caught. It wasn't a massive fish like these million dollar ones, but it was around 100lbs or so. Didn't realize how big a deal that was, but it tasted great.

    It actually does make sense. It was the least desired because it got bad fast because of the hight fat content so it wasn't worth buying because you couln't sell it fast enough, that's why the fishers left those parts over for the poor. Now they have the options to get the fish sold fast and can preserve it a bit longer, so now the actual taste matters, not how good you can preserve/sell it.

    Eh, its more of their place on the food chain, they eat things and only part of the feed is converted to biomass, leading to waste. Also the mercury accumulates in animals exactly the same with people, so the bigger the fish, the higher the dose. Thats why small sardines are recommended more than large tuna. Though the conversation of bait fish and overfishing is another tin on anchovies...

    I wonder if it's the case of branding and perception. We done an experiment once. We bought 40 cheese egg tarts from this famous shop considered to be the tastiest cheese egg tart in the whole city. It's also quite pricey compared to it's contemporaries. Then we repackaged 20 of them to look's like it came from some cheap roadside stall. We brought it to our office and before long some people started to complain how the "cheap" tarts not taste as good, and how it lack this and that ingredients. Of course, to the credit of the "famous" tart shop, there's also some who ask me where we bought the "cheap" tart because they say it's unusually good for being "cheap".

Sell it at walmart, even at 50$ i'm not sure anybody will buy it. Take the french wine. 50 years ago the best bottle weere sold for 200-300 $ (2022 dollars). Now it can go as high as 10 000 - 20 000 $. All these products only serve one purpose, to show your money. You are really fat rich ? show it with a 100k watch and a 1 000 000 $ car. Or serve a 20k $ bottle to your guest, if you want to be a sophisticated rich, with red tuna and caviar You are not rich but still want to show you have more than the average joe ? buy 500$ sneakers and the last iphone.

    I had a meal that included a single 1" x 2" x 1/4" piece of tuna that was heavily striated with fat, marbled and beautiful. I didn't even KNOW what I was tasting, but it was just LOVELY, something of a revelation, really. Like butter. I don't think I'll get another opportunity to taste that again, but I'm glad I got to, just once. (That said, I'm happy with a good steak too.)

    Tuna will be gone not so much because of overfishing, but because of pollution in the ocean. Just think how many countries are dumping raw trash in the ocean. Everytime, you see a ship or ocean liner, remember all the trash from them is polluting the water and contaminating the fish.

    While ocean pollution is no joke, over fishing is very real. My father was a commercial fisherman for 30 years. He told me as I child I could never be a fisherman like him because by the time I grew up there would be no fish left. He, and most of the industry, has his license bought back by the government in the mid-2000, as a change in policy to combat over-fishing. The problem is, the ocean has no boarders. So Australia has drastically changed the fishing laws, but our neighbours have huge illegal fishing problems. I get it, because we are talking developing countries, and its poor people in crappy boats who fish illegally to make money to feed their families. But it undoes any good Australia tries to do

When I was young, I used to go deep sea fishing with my pops, and I caught a baby bluefin while trolling. I threw it back though. It was the only tuna my family has ever seen though in all our years of fishing... It really shows how small their wild population must be.
