Pacu Ping!
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off this South Texas/Mexico ping list.
I would say there is something fishy about this. :-)
Yep, I sure do. When I was in college a buddy of mine had a huge fishtank with six red piranha and one large pacu in it. We'd been drinking beer and he told me he didn't want to keep the pacu any more, so it came out of the tank and a knife came out of the drawer and I ended up pan frying it with some red chile sauce. It was actually quite tasty, (white, flaky meat), but there were a lot of bones.
Has there ever been an environmentalist whacko who hasn't co-opted alarmist rhetoric?
It tastes just like those frogs that taste like chicken--or is it chickens that taste like frogs?
After all, frogs came first in time.
"Anyone know how pacu tastes?"
Tastes like chicken. [grin]
Actually, I'm sure it's a pretty tasty fish. Just cut off those filets and fry 'em up like you would perch or crappie. Probably you couldn't tell the difference.
