So much to worry about...
IMO tilapia is some really nasty fish anyway.
Tilapia costs less than most all the other fish to purchase, currently.
So more folks are probably buying Tilapia, and other "fishers" aren't getting what they want out of all this. Hmph.
“Dirty Jobs” had an episode on a fish farm. Tilapia was the fish used to eat leftovers and feces just before the water went for sewage treatment. I’ll never touch the stuff again.
I knowingly ate talapia once, and that was the last time. It tastes like a goldfish bowl smells. Major ick factor.
I only ate Tilapia once. It was lousy. Too many other good choices.
You can’t tell the value of this study until we know if they tested filets (what actually gets eaten) or whole fish. If they tested whole fish alot of the fatty acids are in lipids and guts that don’t get eaten. Some researchers with an agenda will bias their tests in this way to fool people into thinking they are getting much higher doses than they actually receive.
I do not like escolar. I mean, it's funny in a prank, but not funny in rush hour traffic.
Tell me how much Omega-6 is in that "crappy" fish! "Fatty acid"...no kidding!
Yes, but can I still eat my kippered herring? I fried tilapia once and it was very good. I prefer kipper herring anyway. I just don’t get much company coming around (or husband) when I have it on a sandwich.
Uh, yeah -that’s very interesting—pass the Tilapia.
Time to sell that tilapia fish farm stock!
to road kill beaver for supper!This also goes for most beef, poultry, eggs and any farmed raised fish. Switching any of these animals from their natural diet to a grain diet changes the ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acid in the resulting food products.
Grass fed beef, and high Omega-3 eggs and other products higher Omega-3 products are becoming more common, and are bought by consumers who desire the more natural ratio of Omega-6 and Omega-3 three in the basic foods.
And, even the higher amounts listed for farm raised salmon are still well below the amount of Omega-3 found in wild salmon.
Some speculate that the significant shift from the natural Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratios in food that occurred in the past century or so is a cause of many illnesses. Man followed a diet with a particular natural ratio for thousands of years, and the change occurred as meat and egg production shifted to large farms where grain was the major feed for the animals.
OK, I'm convinced! Back to the double bacon cheeseburgers for me! Hey, who am I to argue with Science?
Fish...is a 4-letter word...
The last tilapia I ate tasted moldy. Raised in commie China. I thought of turning out the lights to see if it glowed in the dark. Even “Tuna Cat” turned his nose up at the stuff. Fortunate I’m still alive.
Switched to Whiting from New Zealand and American flounder and yellow fin tuna. Stomach much, much happier now.
Good old sardines are a better choice. Packed in olive oil they are high in omega 3 and have calcium and other minerals in abundance. Plus they are cheaper than other fish and do not require any cooking.
