SUSTAINABLE SEAFOOD —
A Look at Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch Program
The topic of sustainability has been at the forefront in college and university dining services for the last several years. One area that has been on the rise is the use of sustainable seafood.
When it comes to knowing what types of seafood are sustainable, the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch Program has become one of a few authorities, including Marine Stewardship Council and the Global Aquaculture Alliance, that many in the foodservice industry have turned to. Since 1999, the organization has printed 36 million of its sustainable seafood pocket guides and its iPhone application has been downloaded more than 240,000 times.
