Breakfast at risk: PH tries to turn the tide on fish losses
Excerpt
Dried fish for breakfast, fried to a crisp with a splash of spiced vinegar, garlic fried rice and a runny egg yolk, is the kind of breakfast that Filipinos who live abroad crave. The dish, often made with sardines, anchovies, or round scad, uses dried seafood products that are a staple in the Philippines, where they are cheap, widely available and local. But a United Nations report released in March this year projected that in 30 years all commercial fishing could cease in the Asia-Pacific region if existing threats to the region’s biodiversity aren’t acted upon.
