Cozumel Seafood Lent

Fish & Seafood Consumption on the Rise: Lent Attributed

 Catholic Holidays Increase Demand …

 Sales in both fish and seafood are on the rise in Cozumel, and according to the Administrator for the Municipal Market, this increase is partially attributed to the Catholic observance of Lent.  Sales of locally caught seafood is as much as 15% higher on Wednesdays and Fridays, the days when during Lent it is traditional to give up red meat dishes.

Sales seem to be split evenly between higher priced fish such as fillets and Grouper and more economical fish such as Hogfish and Snapper.

El aumento en el consumo de pescado y mariscos se atribuye a la Cuaresma

Aumenta la demanda en los días de la celebración católica. . .

Las ventas de pescado y mariscos están a la alza en Cozumel, y de acuerdo al administrador del mercado municipal, dicho ascenso en parte se debe a la celebración católica de la Cuaresma. Las ventas de los mariscos que se pescan localmente han aumentado tanto como 15% los días miércoles y viernes; días que, durante Cuaresma, es tradicional no consumir platillos hechos a base de carnes rojas.

 

Las ventas parecen dividirse en partes iguales entre los pescados de mayores precios tales como los filetes y el mero, y los pescados más económicos como lo son el boquinete y  el pargo.
