Ahh, the 80's. Save the Wave music! Boy, I wanted to see Duran Duran in concert so badly along with my friends in our parachute pants - we had Simon Le Bon posters on our walls and centerfolds in our pre-teen rags.
And in the 1980s we had a different kind of oil flowing than from Prudhoe Bay - from this 1989 JAOCS pay article:
- Super EPA 500 (Walgreen Labs, Inc) Ethyl Ester 500 mg EPA/DHA
- Nature's Pride EPA Pure 700 (Nature's Products Inc) FFA 583 mg EPA/DHA
- O-3 Pure Super 500 (Schiff Bio-Food Proc) Methyl Ester 500 mg EPA/DHA
Also, you'll see Dr. Von Schacky (in the US during 1985) using ethyl esters (and we know Japan had EPA EE - Nippon Oil & Fats, too, because of the timing of those Chiba field trials).
We had tons of newspaper articles on O-3 fatty acid supplementation for health. Oh wait. We still do.
Big oil and little oil --->
The Rappahanock Record in Virginia on Oct 5, 1989:
Zapata AND menhaden oil both on front page
George HW Bush started Zapata Corp as an oil and gas company in 1954, but he sold out in 1966. Also, looks like Zapata Corp vessels were used by CIA in Bay of Pigs. Eventually in the 1980s Zapata Corp bought Omega Protein. During the 1980s soybeans rose to prominence in the US...which started to take over the role in animal nutrition that menhaden had played. In the 1990's Avram Glazer took over Zapata via some shady deals & launched an Omega Protein IPO. Glazer used a front man named Theodore Roxford to pump the stock of Omega Protein so that Glazer could show enough collateral to buy more of Manchester United in 2003. In 2007 Roxford was convicted of securities fraud by the SEC in the SDNY. The Glazer billionaires had a teflon coating and the family still controls the Bucs and dishes the family office money via foundations in TB. Just another decade in America - same corrupt rigging as always.

Guess, I'm not the only Gen Xer who stills likes Duran Duran and 80s music-
