Biodiversity in the supermarket
I think it is very interesting to understand the biology of food.
I'm always curious to know more about: where it comes from, how it was grown, and how it came to the supermarket shelf.
It is not easy to have such a broad knowledge.
Nowadays we have everything, during all the time, available to consume.
We do not even care or understand the seasonality of food production.
It is not easy to chose when we cannot understand how much it requires to bring that small living thing until the shelf in our food store.
This project shows the biodiversity in the supermarket.
It is fun to show the many fish one can find in a Portuguese supermarket...

...but bacalhau is not a Portuguese fish!
Maybe it would be better to say that it is a Portuguese way to prepare fish that comes from Norway, Iceland or Newfoundland (North-West Atlantic).
