Caesar salads and kimchi has always been made with a little seafood though. The anchovies is what makes it a Caesar dressing, and lots of kimchi recipes have those tiny shrimps or at the very least some type of shrimp paste in them, and are heavily seasoned with fish sauce.
Fish sauce is a huge staple of Asian cuisines in general, so this stuff you’re complaining about ‘sneaking in’ has always been there. You sound like a crazy person to me, complaining about these foods having seafood in them.
I typically avoid those foods because I know they have fish sauce, but it’s not always obvious and restaurants tend to forget/mislabel/misrepresent them. It’s also worth noting that they can be made without fish, and fish-less versions are common (ie: kimchi).
To give a different example, I ordered stuffed mushrooms at a diner once after asking the waitress what was in it. She said it was mainly bread crumbs and cheese. Surprise surprise, it was crab.

Ah yeah, I get your point now. That is annoying. Restaurants should know exactly what they’re serving people and be up front about it.
Yeah i get that a lot. Just trying to not eat animals, that’s all.
Beans and rice? (“Sure! Lots of pork fat in there!”)
Uh, vegetable soup? (“Absolutely! With ‘healthy’ beef stock!”)
Glass of water? (“Coming up! Infused with delicious bacon!”)
