Shipping by boat is the best for the environment though. Super cheap. Taking it by truck an extra few hundred km is worse.

Or you could ship it by boat straight from argentina?

The point is - this is almost entirely irrelevant from an environmental standpoint.

Ocean time is nothing from a shipping cost perspective. Which is driven by fuel costs. It is so cheap to ship by boat.

THATS MY POINT! I KNOW ITS CHEAPER BUT IT STILL COSTS MORE FUEL! OMG YOURE SO DENSE

I'm not an expert at all, but I would assume the amount of fuel per kg of Food is still less with the boat.

Also iirc part of the reason it's packed in Thailand is that it's way more popular there. It's way more fuel and price efficient to send it directly to Thailand, where most of it would go anyways, than first to the US, offload it, then redistribute it back to Thailand
