An almost 600-pound bluefin tuna caught off the coast of Japan set the all-time auction record yesterday at Japan's famous Tsukiji Fish Market. How much did the fish sell for? About $736,000 dollars. That's a lot of tuna salad.?

From this story in the Washington Post:?

This tuna is worth savoring: It cost nearly three-quarters of a million dollars. A bluefin tuna caught off northeastern Japan fetched a record 56.49 million yen, or about $736,000, Thursday in the first auction of the year at Tokyo?s Tsukiji fish market. The price for the 593-pound (269-kilogram) tuna beat last year?s record of 32.49 million yen.
