Praise be to spinach in all its forms! Aaaa mennnnnn.
She battled through in every kind of tribulation,
She revelled in adventure and imagination.
She never listened to no hater, liar,
Breaking boundaries and chasing fire.
Oh, my my! Oh my, she flies!

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer eh? Very wise.

Pulse trawling in the EU: Is it ok to 'electrocute' fish?

Like the use of explosives and poison, pulse fishing is technically banned in the EU. The US, China and several other countries have a ban too.


I remember reading that there are no animal protection laws in China :scratch: so not sure why they'd care about the wider impact of pulse trawling to the marine ecosystem, let alone the suffering of the fish at being "tasered".

Sorry, shop-bought. Lazy, you see. :angel:

Although... this might do the job.

Thanks. We’re on it.

Except for that god damned revolting cumin. We’ll be omitting that crap.

Love cumin, but sparingly. Nice in hummus.
