The fresh foods we buy in our supermarkets like meats and fish aren’t shipped direct from farm or ocean. They are coming from slaughterhouses and fisherman’s Co-ops/markets. A person in the know once told me the seafood we get in our supermarkets has been off the boat for at least 2 weeks.
You would think a business could order a surplus to cover a full service cycle?
Again, I guess running out of a main ingredient works for some but I won’t travel there to be disappointed. My 2 cents.
I wouldn't suggest eating a two week old clam. If you do make sure you have a free schedule for the next couple of days. They are highly perishable.
