SC restaurants must say if shrimp came from US or foreign waters under new law

Starting in October, South Carolina restaurants will be legally required to disclose whether their shrimp comes from U.S. or foreign waters. This new law aims to provide transparency for consumers and supports local fishermen by emphasizing domestic seafood sourcing. The move underscores a broader national trend towards greater food labeling clarity and consumer empowerment, highlighting the importance of knowing the origin of what we eat. This change could also influence broader discussions on sustainability and economic impacts on local industries.
