There is a general undercurrent of greenness and sustainability in most of the topics discussed by Punaweb members. In the name of consistency, what could be less green or sustainable than shipping fresh food 1/8 of the way around the world, refrigerating it all the while, when the same product could be produced locally? So what if it tastes a little better? On the same site where people obsess about the embodied energy in their building materials, which are going to last decades and in most cases can't be produced locally, is no one going to pass judgement on shipping a perishable product that is mostly water, requires refrigeration, could be (in fact is) produced locally, and is a one time use item?
What about bison meat? I hear it's pretty good.
