As a pr stunt the tuna pen adventure must rate right up there with sea world and the happy orcas. For an additional fee you can even feed the friendly fish. This mega million dollar company with its fleet of attendant seiners has managed to spin the ongoing plunder of bait fish and pelagic species as some eco friendly venture. I was a little surprised that they in some way weren't able to portray the tuna as willing participants just waiting to escape the wild sea for a life of leisure and then happy demise.

I was only able to see the tuna episode as a preview. I did watch the program about Viña de Frannes in Valle de Guadalupe and Mi Casa Supper Club:

I also watched the program about Cuatro Cuatros and a small winery called Minas del Valle:

Both are worth watching. I always enjoy Jorge's eating experiences. Al bato le gusta comer mucho. (The guy really likes to eat.)

I agree wholeheartedly
I get very sad when I see those damned pens.
Eco-friendly my arse
And BTW thanks to them the coastal bait system is being raped into oblivion by these profiteers...
It has devastated the entire coast around San Quintin and many areas up and down the peninsula
