Can’t Beat ‘Em, Eat ‘Em – An Alternative Solution

A live presentation by Chef Philippe Parola to the Gulf and South Atlantic Regional Committee on Aquatic Invasive Species, given this past October, 2015

Watch this video featuring Chef Philippe Parola as he lays out the Silverfin™ Group’s Can’t Beat ‘Em, Eat ‘Em business strategy and model to harvest and transform Asian carp into Silverfin™ value-added food products for human consumption in US markets.

Within the context of our business strategy and model, Chef Philippe explains why our proposed solution will allow us to achieve the following goals, in a sustainable or enduring manner:

Preserve our natural resources and ensure safe waterways
Nourish our country and improve our health through wild caught, clean, natural high protein fish
Boost our domestic economies, and save and create jobs
Provide financial incentives and resources to revitalize inland commercial fisheries, and preserve sport fisheries and recreation

We have ambitious goals, but they are not meant to eradicate this menacing costly fish. Eradication is simply not possible. Rather, our goals are meant to reduce and manage the population of Asian carp and their threat to our native habitats and lives by providing a new healthy delicious fish to US consumers. We must learn to live with these fish while controlling their threat.
