SHRIMP
Some 40% of the shrimp eaten in the U.S. is farmed raised shrimp from Asia and South America.
World shrimp production is over 5 billion pounds a year, about 20 % of which is farmed.
Salmon and shrimp are the most popular seafoods in American restaurants. In 2001, shrimp replaced canned tuna as America's favorite seafood overall.
