16% protein by mass.$8 per pound (US).Good on PCBs and mercury because farmed.Easy to cook, I made some tonight and it was easy + tasty.What's the catch? Why isn't everyone catfishmaxxing?

>>77189311It's area dependent. It's certainly not $8/lb where I am.But yes, fish in general is a great protein source, and Americans in general don't eat enough fish.>inb4 some retard cries about mercuryName one person who has died from Mercury in seafood. Hell name a single person who was hospitalized for it.Selenium counteracts it, which is also found in seafood. Costal countries eat shit tons of seafood and there has never been an epidemic of mercury poisoning in any of those places in all of recorded history.
>>77189387Guy in my fishing group on facebook got memory and motor skill issues after eating fish he caught from his dock everyday for several years straight. Granted this was in the potomac river area so not exactly the cleanest water.
>>77189311The water is still contaminated. Everything is contaminated. I'll stick to deenz
>>77189951Just eat farmed catfish, they eat mostly plant-based food so no mercury.
>>77189966This may shock you, but sardines also live in water.
>>77189995They're also cheaper per pound and are lower on the food chain than catfish making them contain less shit from eating other fish
>>77189997Catfish from grocery stores is farmed. It's not eating other fish, it's eating plant-based floating food pellets.
>>77190007Cat fish literally eat anything. I wouldn't eat industrial farmed pork. Catfish are the pigs of the water
>>77189311>8$ per lb of meh fishGround turkey is 3.20 a pound at aldiIf you want the cheapest protein just get that. Not great but beats catfish
>>77189387>name a single person who was hospitalized for it.Tony Robbins
>>77189387Fish is evil to consume. We should leave the sea to the sea creatures
>>77190492We used to be sea creatures
>>77189311
>>77190492Every single creature on earth today, whether herbivore or carnivore, or omnivore, everything from big animals to small bacteria, on one point in timeline, had to rely on the sea for sustenance.If anything, it's eating NON sea things that's harmful.
>>77189951>River that has had a no fish eating bad for 40 years>Gubmit not gonna tell me how ta inna woodsApparently the blue cats and bass are okay, and the snake head don't give a fuck bout no pcbs. Probably evolved a way to break them down or shit them out from having to live in fucked up Asian water.
>>77191211Pseudoscience bs
>>77191646Idk I think it's fairly firm science at this point
>>77189311Asian countries farm this and literally feed them feces. Human feces, pig farm feces and other garbage. Really unappetizing and probably bad for you, somehow.
Catfish is almost always eaten fried, which aint good for you.
>>77192148So?
>>77190492Fish are the least sentient and human food animal food source there is. Better to eat them than cows or pigs
>>77190965>>77191211>>77192435Seriously just leave the sea creatures be, it’s their realm not ours. We’re destroying the earths biome. Whales and dolphins are the rightful owners of the sea
>>77192472>Fish are friends not foodWhat about rivers and lakes? Can we fish those? What about fish farms?
>>77189311They are bottom feeders living in their own poop. Even if they filter the farm its completely disgusting to eat catfish wild or not. Their feed is goyslop and they dont have the Omega-3 content you would expect from fish.
