Tilapia is very easily raised in livestock tanks or ponds and is always listed as a good emergency food source for preppers. Plus, it’s delicious. Damned if I’d ever eat it from China though…they probably raise it in sewage.

Not sure about the Chinese sewage but one setup I’m familiar with spreads chicken cages out over the fish ponds so that the cages are “self cleaning.” Not sure what the chickens eat? Dead fish, maybe?

Like any other animal, ourselves included, they are what they eat. If you have a trusted source Tilapia would be fine. Better if you could raise them yourself.

The more I learn about nutrition and food, the lower my grocery bill gets.

I love it but never could find any that wasn’t farm raised. If you can raise it yourself that would be great.
