All seafood has to be labeled with it's country of origin. They're
called "COOL" regulations. Any retailer not labeling the origin of
fresh or frozen unprocessed seafood is in violation of the law.
I don't think they've been extended to meat or produce yet as there have
a been a lot of back and forths on that issue, but many retailers are
doing so voluntarily as it's inevitable. All the produce that has
little stickers on it says the country of origin - at least at my normal
grocery stores.
