Good afternoon, madam. My colleague and I are from the Department of Seafood Safety, and we’re investigating reports of hazardous tuna in your area. Please give us a sample so we can test it in our labs. Make that two samples.

If all scam artists were this cute nobody would mind being scammed especially if all they wanted was fish LOL!!
They can have all my fish.
I see nothing wrong with these food safety inspectors. Who are we to question safety standards here, really?
I’d trust them over some of the people in charge right now.
Same here.
Definitely
We jest, but I’ve heard quite serious stories from people in poorer countries where food safety system is a joke, and grocer refunds not a thing.
People test out food by feeding stray cats and dogs. If the strays don’t eat it, it gets tossed as obviously unsafe for human consumption.
I wasn’t jesting. I live in the US, and where the FDA hasn’t been doing its job well in a long time.
Agreed. And it’s getting worse.
Indeed, and alas.
The wild thing is it’s been so good (relatively speaking) for so long, lots of people (idiots) decide well what do we need this for! I’ve never heard of anyone dying from unsafe food! And here we are.
What do we need vaccines for? No one gets measles anymore!
I totally believe them. And come in, you can have, uhm “check” all my seafood. I especially want the smoky silver one on the right, just gorgeous coloring!
I will buy some tuna just to have on hand in case of inspections. These two are particularly handsome.
I’ve got some dubious salmon*, they may as well take that as well.

Lotsa Lox with that.
hehehe 🤭
