The
Japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the water close to Japan has not
held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats
got bigger and went farther than ever.
The
further the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring the fish. If the return
trip took more time, the fish were not fresh.
To
solve this problem, the fish companies installed freezers on their boats. They
would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go
farther and stay longer.
However
the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish and they
did not like the taste of frozen fish. The frozen fish brought a lower price.
So,
fishing companies installed fish tanks.
They
would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks fin to fin. After a little
thrashing around, fish were tired, dull, and lost their fresh-fish taste. The
fishing industry faced an impending crisis.
But
today they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan.
How
did they manage?
To
keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish
in the tanks but with a small shark. The fish are challenged and hence are
constantly on the move.
The
challenge they face keeps them alive and fresh!
