Seal oil gets OK for Alaska elders
Traditional food was not allowed in care facilities
MARK THIESSEN | Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Seal oil has been a staple in the diet of Alaska s Inupiat for generations.
The oil – ever-present in households dotting Alaska coastlines – is used mainly as a dipping sauce for fish, caribou and musk ox. It s also used to flavor stews and even eaten alone.
But when Inupiat elders entered nursing homes, they were cut off from the comfort food. State regulations didn t allow seal oil because it s among traditionally prepared Alaska Native foods that have been associated with the state s high rate of botulism, which can cause illness or death.
