In case any of you want some ammo to show students just how overpriced Korean meat is, here are some ads I scanned from my home state in the central USA this past week. Show them what's REALLY behind the protests organized by anti-US Beef crowd. They're trying to protect their outrageously high prices. Anyone have some ad comparisons of Korean meat?

Mmmm - I'll be in Canada in exactly five days and I can hardly wait to sink my teeth into some almost-as-cheap, lean, MCD-contaminated Canadian beef.

Well, I'm not arguing that beef is overpriced here, but conversely, how expensive is seafood in Seoul vs. Seafood in the midwest?

In case you're curious, I'm from Illinois so I know . . ..

Where in Illinois are you from? I don't think seafood's that expensive here, but then again, I never really eat seafood. I guess it depends on what you like. If you eat swordfish, halibut, lobster, mahi-mahi, or other expensive fishes, then you have to pay a lot. Although, I sometimes find swordfish and halibut at Butera grocery store for less than $10 a lb. The swordfish wasn't very good though... The best fish I ever tasted was in Alaska. Hands down...
