Lutefisk law a mite fishy?

Mike Miller in The Capital Times reports on the start of Lutefisk Season and wonders why lutefisk is not a seafood.

The short answer is: We don't know, and no one remembers.

But you can look it up. Section 29.503(1)(d) of the Wisconsin statutes says quite clearly that many things, including crab, lobster, shrimp and a host of other delicacies, are in fact "seafood" under the law, "but not any canned fish or fish known as lutefisk."
