Abstract: 

At a Seaweed Workshop organized earlier this year by Maine Sea Grant and principally funded by Maine Aquaculture Innovation Center, Tollef Olsen commented that although he has been referring to seaweed as “the virtuous vegetable,” he’s wondered if instead, he should describe it as “the versatile vegetable.” Presentations given by participants at the conference revealed that both descriptions are apt.
