From the rainbow-hued pearl lobsters of Indonesia and the baby eels of Spain to the giant Copper River king salmon of Alaska and Nigeria's cod stockfish, dried thousands of miles away in the cold winds of Norway, we uncovered the stories behind six of the world's most expensive kinds of seafood. Our first stop is on the northeast coast of the US, where fishers in Maine can find the greatest quantities of American lobster. From there, they can sell to popular restaurants in New York City that charge over $30 for a fresh 4-ounce lobster roll. So, what made this crustacean go from prison food to a well-known delicacy? And why are lobsters so expensive?

Some scientists say that even if the ocean were full of king salmon, the Southern Residents would still be in trouble. But the ocean won’t be full of king salmon. In the Pacific Northwest and California, wild salmon runs have been decimated by dams, agricultural pollution and hatchery programs that harmed stocks of wild fish. While the troller lawsuit makes its way through the appeals process, the Wild Fish Conservancy said it will encourage consumers to stop eating wild king salmon from Alaska’s troll fishery and petition to have many of that state’s king runs listed as endangered. Wild salmon survived for millenniums in rivers across the globe, through the earth’s warming and cooling cycles, but over the last few hundred years, they’ve disappeared from all but a few places on earth.

We’re looking back at the strongest, smartest opinion takes of the week from CNN and other outlets.

Sound familiar?”“A keen student of Russian history, Putin is aware of the stakes here. The Wagner force served the Russian president as a useful tool he could control for foreign adventures.

NEW YORK, June 20 (Reuters) - Conservative U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito on Tuesday published a commentary in the Wall Street Journal defending himself from questions about his ethical conduct raised in a yet-to-be published article by news outlet ProPublica. Alito's comments come as the court has been embroiled in ethics controversies - in particular revelations about ties between conservative Justice Clarence Thomas and a Texas billionaire. Alito wrote that for the private flight to Alaska, which appears to have taken place in 2008, Singer "allowed me to occupy what would have otherwise been an unoccupied seat." Alito said the justices commonly interpreted financial disclosure requirements to mean that "accommodations and transportation for social events were not reportable gifts." Alito also said he had "no obligation" to recuse in any case connected to Singer, with whom he has spoken to a handful of times.

When opened, the Santa Monica location will be Kitchen United's 24th ghost kitchen. For Chipotle, Kitchen United's model allows the restaurant chain to test out the new brand with reduced risk. For now, Chipotle's chief purpose with the location is simply to learn, but that doesn't mean Farmesa won't grow.

In the first “Knives Out” film, drawling detective Benoit Blanc (played by Daniel Craig) peels back the film’s windy whodunit wearing a smart, if just a smidgen peacockish, necktie. By the time he emerges in last year’s sequel, “Glass Onion,” the tie is absent. In its place, Blanc displays an arsenal of neckerchiefs in robin’s-egg blue, yolk yellow and a silky-looking salmon. He arrives on the film’s sandy setting as more of a raffish retiree.
