Is Mote Unable to Resist Calling Their Caviar Sustainable??


On December 22nd, 2012 Mote spokeswoman, Hayley Rutger, was quoted in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune as follows: “ It’s good to know our caviar is not only sustainable, but up to par with the foodies out there. There’s an interest in out culture to be sustainable and what we’re doing really fits into that.”

247 days earlier, on April 19th, the Sarasota Herald Tribune was kind enough to publish a guest column of mine that argued Mote Marine’s sturgeon/caviar operation was not, contrary to their persistent claims, a sustainable enterprise.
