Tilapia had a weird taste, but I've been enjoying the rockfish we get from Costco, only $1/lb more than the tilapia, and way better flavor. Is this just me having a garbage palate for fish (admittedly the case), or what cheap seafood does meet TFF approval. I know it's not really manly but I care about the environment so I like to pick fish based on how sustainable they are. This tool is pretty useful: https://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations Rockfish seems to be all over the map depending on the actual species and source: https://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations/groups/rockfish?q=rockfish&t=rockfish Tilapia is less ambiguous, unless you're getting colombian tilapia you're in good shape: https://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations/groups/tilapia As a general rule, farmed freshwater/vegetarian fish that are farmed in the US are an excellent choice. Wild-caught Alaskan fish are another excellent choice, because it has the best-managed wild fisheries in the world. Farmed salmon and other carniverous fish are pretty bad choices, because they're fed fishmeal and are also a serious health risk to the wild populations. So for white fish, alaskan cod is a really good pick. It holds together really well for stuff like deep frying or a fish stew, but can flake nicely for fish tacos. For a delicate white fish I like sanddabs (a Best Choice fish) lightly breaded and very quickly fried. My go-to for an inexpensive, whole fresh fish to just fillet and then cook in butter, lemon, and maybe some dill or shallots is farmed rainbow trout. When it comes to sushi, I have a weakness for yellowfin tuna, aka Maguro. Unfortunately it's often impossible to tell exactly where it's from or how it was caught, and uh... https://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations/groups/tuna?type=yellowfin&q=Tuna,%20Yellowfin&t=tuna Yeah. It's a severely overfished fish.

This is cool and useful, thanks! I've no idea what specific species I'm getting, but being on the west coast I'd think it was somewhere close by. Good to keep an eye on.

When I was in Costa Rica last February I had a deep fried Catch of the Day for lunch at a beachfront restaurant. I have no idea what kind of fish it was but it was amazing.

Jiminy Christmas! Shoes! posted:I would stay away from farmed fish in general because they are generally much higher in mercury. Especially salmon. This is incorrect. Peak predator fish concentrate mercury and there is lots and lots of it in e.g. wild tuna. Eat fish lower on the food chain (e.g., vegetarian fish like tilapia) and they'll be naturally lower in heavy metals like mercury. The most common farmed fish are tilapia, trout, catfish, and salmon, and these are all lower in mercury. https://www.nrdc.org/sites/default/files/walletcard.pdf The fish at the bottom of the card are the peak predators. Many of the fish at the top are freshwater farmed fish like tilapia and catfish, as well as the small oily fishes ("baitfish") that you can usually buy in a can and definitely should, because sardines are glorious. e. Farmed fish do tend to be higher in PCBs and other pesticides, because they're often fed stuff like soy, which comes from farms where we use that stuff. But the mercury levels are generally no different than the same species in the wild. e2. and as I mentioned earlier, you should avoid farmed salmon. Not because of the mercury risk but because they seem to be really bad for the wild salmon populations, which is exactly the opposite of the real goal for farming fish: to reduce the pressure on wild populations.

If you never went to a trout farm as a kid and got excited as poo poo when the lure you cast got a bite within seconds and you reeled in the im biggest fish you'd ever seen than I have no idea what to tell you.

Isn't Tilapia just catfish that can't be called catfish because of some old law? I could swear I read that somewhere.

Leperflesh posted:This is incorrect. This is an extremely good post. For many species, farmed fish are way healthier than the wild counterparts. The fishing industry or something has done a great lobbying job because consumers are suspicious of farmed fish. But also stop eating any animals you dorks.

SHOAH NUFF posted:I thought one reason farmed fish may have higher mercury is that they are fed fishmeal? Which I am guessing has higher mercury than their regular prey in the wild, or maybe it doesn't Carniverous farmed fish are fed fishmeal, and that means salmon. Vegetarian farmed fish are not, and that means trout, catfish, tilapia, and several others. "Farmed fish are bad" is unfortunately not a useful rule of thumb: we need to be eating freshwater non-carniverous farmed fish, because that reduces the pressure on severely impacted wild populations. Grittybeard posted:Isn't Tilapia just catfish that can't be called catfish because of some old law? I could swear I read that somewhere. No. They're a kind of nile riverfish, if I remember right. They don't look anything like catfish, either.

I'm probably getting it mixed up with something else, I remember reading about some big US catfish industry campaign back in the 80s. Or maybe it was tilapia and they were just trying to make it seem like the fish was dangerous to eat and that's what mixed me up?

Used to go "illegal" fishing for rainbow trout with my grandfather when I was a kid. Also we'd sneak around golf courses and country clubs and steal golf balls in the woods. Great man.

Proper salty lox on a fresh bagel with a little smear of cream cheese is fantastic. None of that nova lox bullshit, though. My digestive tract is basically bomb-proof, but the one time I ate tilapia it gave me terror farts.
