Seth&#8217;s answer was:  Probably whale meat.  I was in Japan and eating everything on the dinner table.  It just looked like a normal piece of steak.  I&#8217;m sorry.<br \/>\nhaha!  that is so funny because i remember it so clearly.  when i took care of Seth on his first trip to japan, i think he was only 10 years old or so.  i told him &#8220;hey Seth, when you travel, eat everything that is presented to you.  you don&#8217;t have to like it, just try it.  that&#8217;s the way to travel to understand other cultures.   Seth ate whale and other bizarre things on that trip.  and now he knows the culture of japan as a lot of people still eat whale till this day.  Seth, there is no need to say sorry.  there is absolutely nothing wrong with what you did.  explore, experience, and enjoy!<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/surfing-magazine\/docs\/surfing-nssa-guide2015-issuu?e=0\/13703071\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">**CLICK HERE FOR FULL 2015 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS PROGRAM\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>pops, yet another blog i did a while ago and forgot to press &#8220;Publish.&#8221; here it is. once again, the Moniz boys taking over the american surf industry by a storm.
