Seal hunting, or sealing, is the personal or commercial hunting of seals for their pelts, blubber, and meat; as well as to ensure the population does not reach levels that would threaten other species. The hunt is practiced in five countries: Canada, where most of the world's seal hunting takes place, as well as Greenland, Namibia, Norway, and Russia. Seal hunting is an important source of income and food in small coastal communities where other opportunities are limited.
There I put the relevant parts in bold, I see pelts, blubber, MEAT, sufficiently addressed?

Seals are not eaten.
Maybe you could show me a link to the nearest safeway where I could buy me some seal meat.
Only the Newfoundlanders in St. John's eat seal flipper pies (with lots of curry to kill the taste) as if to prove that you CAN (if you hold your nose) eat seal meat. Nowhere in the rest of the country does ANYONE eat seal meat. With the 400,000 baby seals they kill this year, that's more than enough seal flippers for about 50 years.
