editorial I love tuna Tunaholics embrace Ah, summer! I don’t know about the rest of you, but after a long dark and damp winter at our 55º41’north latitude, summer is like a feast. Exams are over, projects concluded and contracts signed. We all want to head out into the countryside, the sooner the better, to be with our families and enjoy the long days and romantic white nights. It is also the time for “summer foods”, lighter courses based on the fresh produce from the kitchen gardens—a much welcomed change of menu from all the old stale imported stuff we get in the winter. One of my favourite meals is Salade Nicoise. For the uninitiated, it is a tuna salad with green lettuce, hard boiled eggs, olives, feta cheese and a lot of other good stuff—very tasty and very healthy like other tuna dishes are. It is also an almost perfect food. It is inexpensive, easy to prepare and the source of many important nutrients. Tuna is high in protein and low in fat, meaning that you can snack on a can of tuna throughout the day without having to worry about adding excess pounds. It is low in sodium but contains the essential omega-3 oils plus lots of iron and taurine, which promotes decomposition of cholesterol in the liver. It is also a good source of Vitamin B12, phosphorus, niacin, selenium and what not. Tuna is one of the tastiest, most nutritious meals you can find, and it could probably save society a helluva lot of problems with cardio-vascular disease if we all ate more tuna instead of beef. Great stuff, so is there a problem here, Officer? Eat more of it, right? Wrong. Yes, there is a problem. Tuna is being hunted and fished to extinction. And one of the root causes is our little innocent daily routine of picking up yet another can of tuna off the shelf in the supermarket. We are emptying the oceans and the populations of big species are collapsing at an alarming rate. Ninety percent of the big fish are now gone. At this very moment, fleets of fishing vessels are still out there combing the ocean with huge trawlers for the remains of a steadily dwindling resource just to satisfy my taste for this fine fish. So the sad conclusion, it seems, is Adrian’s gourmet kitchen www.adriansgourmetkitchen.com 3 X-RAY MAG : 6 : 2005 EDITORIAL FEATURES TRAVEL NEWS EQUIPMENT BOOKS SCIENCE & ECOLOGY EDUCATION PROFILES PORTFOLIO CLASSIFIED
