Fake sushi in Chicago?

Red snapper sushiI don't eat sushi, so I'll have to take the Chicago Sun-Times' word on this.

Seems that Chicago-area restaurants that serve red snapper aren't really serving red snapper at all, they're serving cheap substitutes! And it wasn't an isolated case. In fact, samples were bought from fourteen different restaurants in the city, and none of them were actually red snapper. They found this out by doing DNA tests.

Coming this fall: CSI: Sushi.

The FDA calls it fraud and they are investigating.
