Trivia

Is it true that nori is farmed in Maine?

Answer

Yes. In the 1990s, Maine aquaculturists began farming nori, a species of algae used to wrap sushi. Large nets are seeded with nori and placed in an area of strong ocean current. The harvested seaweed is sent to Eastport where it is processed into sheets of dried nori.
