About Us
Our business is focused on bringing forth food from the sea for feeding people. We’re starting in the the Dominican Republic, because this island nation has virtually turned it’s back on the ocean as a means to feed its population.
Unlike another island nation Japan, the Dominican Republic consumes a higher than necessary carbohydrate diet, which is often the comfort food route many poor people take. Even in America this is the case, because higher carbs, and processed food is less expensive, and when the budget is tight the children stomachs still must be filled.
We seek to educate the population throughout the Caribbean on the virtues and values of a healthier diet consisting of M-ussels, O-ysters, C-lams, K-elp and Scallops, or MOCKS, where they exist and Seaweed.
Here are some videos of what we have found so far, btw there are far many more.

Friend Shawn A. Towle to see it.
Here is some anecdotal information from our founder Shawn Towle.
This is for anyone who wants to lose weight, has high blood pressure, has high cholesterol, and maybe even type II Diabetes.
I am in the Caribbean, in the Dominican Republican and I have great information to share and if it comes off like a infomercial excellent because that is my intent.
I have been here two months and I have lost 25 lbs, and I feel great.
But that said, I ran out of most of my drugs I take for high cholesterol, type II Diabetes, and high blood pressure. Currently, my blood pressure is down to almost normal, my cholesterol reading is good and my A1C is on a downward trajectory and other than a change in temperature, more swimming and walking, there is only one other variable and that is I’ve been eating vegetarian caviar or sea grapes.
Truthfully, not in large quantities but frequently. If this has changed me this significantly, it might be something everyone should incorporate into their diet.
I have shown this algae earlier in a video, but that was before my miraculous changes.
I have started a new business Mocks and More and also will be using the Contained Solutions LLC for creation of new enclosed fisheries here in the DR and through the Caribbean.
In each endeavor, there are investment opportunities available but specifically when I learned the overwhelming majority of fish served in the hotels and restaurants was frozen, I was shocked.
Why would an island nation need to ship in fish? They have a 200 mile fishing zone as does every sovereign nation around the globe.
Why has the Dominican Republic turned its back on the ocean? I’m not sure but they did it decades ago. Now, I know Cuba sold its fishing rights to Canada when the embargo went in place, but since the DR has limited enforcement and lacks large ships to police their waters I suspect China has been poaching their fish and selling it back to them frozen. This is a moral outrage to me.
I am hoping there will be a filing in the World Court against the act and hopefully will result in reparations.
So, here is a before shot of me at around 200lbs, and this is me now at 168lbs.
Yes, I look and feel great.
On Thursday, January 25th I will be hosting a televised event it’s an Iron Chef style competition where chef from a number of prestigious restaurants will compete and make an appetizer, a salad or antipasto, an entree and a desert all utilizing the vegetarian caviar.
This event is a fundraiser for http://containedsolutions.org the nonprofit I started to house homeless and at-risk Veterans in a fourplex they own. Since, it’s a fundraiser hopefully we can raise some funds to promote and produce the cook-off. Hello, are you listening???
I will have a report on the testing for heavy metals prior and hopefully a nutricional break down, I can say personally, I think there really is something worth exploring further. Hopefully, there is an organization which will assist since AURI decided not to.
There are 30,000 types of seaweed in the world and 15,000 types deemed as edible, but you have to find them. There was a recent report on brown seaweed of which there are 1400 varieties. It clear to me that scuba divers go down to sea fish, mammals and crustaceans, and the plants are the background and I want to pull it into the foreground.
De Mar Allá Mesa is my slogan for both Movks and More as well as Contained Solutions LLC.
As a child I wanted to be Jacques Cousteau but as an adult I still want to be him but I’m adding Norman Borlaug to the mix.
If I can change the diet of this nation to that of Japan then they’ll be healthier and a new/old industry will emerge from its cocoon.
I will say it again.
