They'd better come up with some genuinely good recipes. Domestic Lake Erie carp (aka "sewer inspectors") are generally considered edible only in the case of impending starvation. I have heard that the Chinese like this asian carp though so maybe there is a new export product in the works.

Domestic Lake Erie carp

Carp is a common name for various species of freshwater fish of the family Cyprinidae, a very large group of fish native to Europe and Asia.

They have been introduced to various locations around the world, though with mixed results. In Lake Erie, the carp is also classified as a Junk Fish as well as damaging naturalized exotic species but with sporting qualities.
