And if you were deprived of your shark fin soup I'm pretty sure you could find something else to enjoy.

I'm not against eating shark per-se but I the cruelty and sheer wastefulness of shark finning unacceptable. You don't need to be a tree-hugger to find it deplorable. Why not kill them humanely and eat the whole thing?

Ive had the soup a few time and its nothing to write about. It's all just a bunch of mumbo jumbo for what is nothing but cartillage.

Actual shark meat is pretty bland.

I do eat the whole thing...I mean I eat shark fin, the meat, and various shark puree. I agree since shark fin is expensive, many fishermen just cut off the fin and throw away the rest though.

If it makes you feel any better, when I eat some other fish I often eat the whole fish (This includes eyeballs). I imagine when you eat you fish, you just eat a fillet and throw away the rest which are perfectly good parts that you can eat or use for stock, etc.

Same goes for other types of meat. Do you eat the whole animal, including guts? Maybe you do, but most people don`t, which means they are wasting most of the animal.
