ʻO ka mākeke iʻa ʻo Tsukiji, ka huakaʻi mākaʻikaʻi kiʻekiʻe a Tokyo, ke kaupalena nei i ke komo ʻana

ʻAʻole pau ka huakaʻi i Tokyo me ka ʻole o ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana i ka Mākeke ʻo Tsukiji (築地市場, Tsukiji shijō), ka mākeke iʻa a me ka iʻa iʻa nui loa ma ka honua. Wahi a nā manaʻo hoʻohālikelike, ʻoi aku ma mua o 2000 tons iʻa i ʻoi aku ma mua o US$15 miliona ke kūʻai ʻia ma ʻaneʻi i kēlā me kēia lā - ʻo ia ka huina o 616,000 tons iʻa ma mua o US $4.25 biliona i kēlā me kēia makahiki!

Inā hele mai ia mai ke kai mai, a laila e loaʻa iā ʻoe ma ka Central Fish Market, ʻo ia ka home o nā ʻeka ma luna o nā ʻeka o nā mea kūʻai aku. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka mea koʻikoʻi no ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi ʻē aʻe a me ka ʻāina, ʻo ia ke kūʻai ʻana i ka tuna i kēlā me kēia lā, kahi e hiki ai i nā behemoth 600 paona nui ke kiʻi i nā kumukūʻai a hiki i nā kaukani kālā no ke poʻo.

Inā ʻaʻole i loaʻa iā ʻoe ka pono o ka nānā ʻana i ke kūʻai kūʻai tuna kaulana a Tsukiji, hoʻomaka ka hana ma kahi o 5am ke komo ʻia nā mea kūʻai aku ma ka papahele o ka lumi hōʻike. Ma ʻaneʻi, ʻimi ʻia nā lālani tuna maloʻo a hoʻoulu ʻia e nā lima akamai e ʻimi i ka ʻiʻo kiʻekiʻe loa. Ma hope koke iho, ua hū ka hiʻohiʻona i ka leo o nā kelepona a me nā pane i ka ʻimi ʻana o nā mea kūʻai aku e ʻoi aku kekahi i kekahi no ka iʻa koho.

ʻO ka mea pōʻino, ke kaohi ʻia nei ke komo ʻana o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi i kēia hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha ma hope o ka piʻi ʻana o nā hoʻopiʻi a ka poʻe kālepa iʻa e hoʻohuli nei nā mākaʻikaʻi iā lākou mai kā lākou hana.

Mai ka lā 1 o ʻApelila, 2008, hiki i ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi ke nānā i nā kūʻai kūʻai tuna mai kahi i koho ʻia, a ke kau ʻia nei nā manawa komo mai 0500 a i 0615. Ma muli o ka holomua o kēia mau lula hou i ka pale ʻana i nā mea hoʻohilahila, aia kahi manawa. e hoʻokō ʻia nā hoʻoponopono ʻoi aku ka ʻoi aku ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma kēia mua aku.

Wahi a Ihei Sugita, ka mea e hana ana ma ka Hale Kuai I'a Waena, ua maa mau ka poe malihini kipa i ka hoopa a me ke kii i na i'a mai ko lakou aina. "Ma kahi e kūʻai aku ai i nā haneli he nui i ka lā, pili kēia i kā mākou ʻoihana. Manaʻo mākou e hōʻole loa iā lākou no ka mea ke kipa aku nei lākou mai nā ʻāina ʻē, no laila ke mālama nei mākou i kēia puka makani e hoʻopilikia iki iā mākou.

I ka wā ma mua, ʻo nā kūʻai kūʻai tuna i kēlā me kēia lā ma Tsukiji e huki wale ana i nā malihini kipa ʻike i kēlā me kēia lā. Eia nō naʻe, i kēia mau makahiki i hala iho nei, ua piʻi ka kaulana o ka hanana, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi o ka honua i lilo i mea makemake nui i ke kumu haʻahaʻa o kā lākou sushi punahele.

No ka mea, aia ka manawa kūpono e pani ʻia ai nā kūʻai tuna i nā makahiki e hiki mai ana, pono paha e hoʻāʻo e ʻike i kēia hanana kūʻokoʻa a hiki iā ʻoe. Inā ʻike ʻoe iā ʻoe iho i waho i ka pō ma Tokyo, ʻo kā mākou ʻōlelo paipai e pāʻina ikaika ma Roppongi a hiki i ka puka ʻana o ka lā, a laila e lele i kahi kaʻa wikiwiki i Tsukiji. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo kahi hangover e hiki mai ana a me ke ʻala o ka iʻa maka he hui naʻauao wale nō, akā hilinaʻi iā mākou - ʻo ka lilo ʻana i waenakonu o ka pupule kūʻai pono ke pilikia!
