tilapia may be the Meryl Streep of seafood, capable of playing almost any role.

I've only knowingly bought tilapia once and it was the nastiest fishiest crap I've ever tasted. After a couple of bites I passed it off to the dogs and even they turned their noses up at it.

Mystery meat. Yum. Love seafood so it’s all good, maybe.

Well, this could explain why I always say I’m allergic to some kinds of fish, but I don’t know which ones. I tend to avoid all fish, just to be on the safe side.

Yellowtail stands in for mahi-mahi.

Unlikely. Yellowtail is far more expensive than mahi-mahi.

Why bother eating fish unless the fish is Lake Erie perch and the portion is all you can eat?

(There is no satisfactory answer.)

So true. As a long time commercial fisherman. Never buy seafood unless you catch it. they bleach it with Clorox to kill the smell and whiten it.

...we even have Kenyan Flounder being sold in D.C. and throughout the country as genuine Hawaiian Sole.

Cheers!

If it swims, I eat it. Call it whatever you want. I always get whatever the special is in the supermarket and I bake it in olive oil at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. During summer, I wrap it in tin foil and put it on the grill.

Eighty-four percent of seafood consumed in the United States is now imported, often passing through a multistep global supply chain.

Great goodness — 84% of seafood is now imported?

We sit between the earth's two great oceans, the Pacific and the Atlantic, and yet we import 84% of our seafood?

Reminds me of a restaurant where I ordered red snapper.

What they served was perch and clearly not snapper. When I complained, the waiter explained that red snapper is usually served in the shell, but they prepare it differently. UGH, idiot.
