(Friday) fish day

At the same time, we see the consumption in the Iberian countries (still the largest fish eaters in Europe) is dropping. The same is happening in Japan. In countries where the consumption was traditionally high, fish is considered ‘old folks food’ and you prove your modernity and wealth by eating at Mac Donalds. This is not the case in Belgium where you eat ‘Macdo’ to prove you’re too busy to eat properly..."
