The True Cost of Shrimp: What the Grocery Store Doesn’t Show You

Season 2 Episode 1 | 13m 11s

Shane Campbell-Staton investigates how shrimp became America’s #1 seafood — and reveals the exploitation and forced labor that fuel its global supply chain. With journalist Ben Lorr and activist Patima Tungpuchayakul, he exposes how modern slavery hides behind low prices and how grocery stores disconnect us from the people who feed us.
