March 11, 2015 — One in every five fish caught on the planet is brought to the Tsukiji Market for auction every year, about 1,800 tons and worth $20 million a day, reports "CBS This Morning" co-host Norah O'Donnell.
Compare that to the biggest fish market in the U.S., the Fulton Fish Market in New York City where 400 tons of seafood is sold daily.
Among the most coveted catches at Tsukiji include blue fin tuna, whose best specimens have fetched more than $1 million each and come from as far away as Norway, Spain and Massachusetts.
