I am a California resident who recently moved to San Diego. While getting to know the new neighborhood better, I came across a large Asian grocery store.

I was really getting excited at the variety of the items the store had available until I hit the soup and found that the store sold shark fin soup. Suffice to say, I have not entered the store since, nor will I frequent it again as long as this store carries this product.

It is my sincere hope that our state will ban the sale of shark fin soup A.S.A.P.!
