Prohibited in: Dozens of countries, including the United States
Reason: Species protection
In most countries in China and Southeast Asia, shark fin soup is served in restaurants and street stalls. The soup consists of the shredded fin of a shark, as the name suggests. However, it is not the fin but the spices and herbs that are added that determine the taste of the soup. The fin serves solely as a texture.
