Genuine Cajun's Spicy Fight for Authentic Louisiana Seafood
By Jeremy Krail, WBRZ-TV 2, Baton Rouge
BATON ROUGE - A Louisiana man aired his grievances in proper southern-fried fashion over vendors who he claims are using his "Cajun culture" to sell their foreign-harvested seafood. Dean Blanchard is a bonafide shrimper and Grand Isle native, but he paid a visit to Baton Rouge Wednesday to voice his support for House Bill 335. The proposal would mandate that restaurants display signage disclosing whether their crawfish or shrimp came from a country outside the United States.
