Is this the seafood equivalent of chicken? I was a vegetarian for many years but I want to replace milk and dairy with fish instead. I won't have to eat as much of it to get a kick of protein and I don't feel as guilty eating wild caught fish as I do consuming factory farmed animal products.With that being said, I am also on a budget and I want something that is bland by itself, like chicken. Is cod ok? I live on the east coast so cod and haddock are relatively cheap in frozen bulks.
>>77265047yes
>>77265047Tuna is the seafood equivalent of chicken but cod and haddock are okay too ig. If your a vegetarian i heard some of you people allow eating stuff like oysters and mussels bc they physiologically cant feel pain or something due to a lack of a CNS and are therefore functionally vegetables, so maybe you could include bivalves too.

>>77265047I've heard almost all consumer fish contains worms. avoid the stuff like the plague despite never once looking it up or confirming it's true.
>>77265047it's a fine lean fish, not super nutritious besides having a good protein content. it is definitely bland. it's fine to buy in bulk
>>77265101And the sun is gonna kill you and milk has microscoping boogeymen that make you fat and make you shit yourself only eat vegetables goy very healthy very nutritious
>>77265047this is fine but don't eat it for all your protein. the higher the fish is on the food chain, the more mercury and arsenic builds up in their tissues from consuming vast quantities of smaller fish over their entire lifetimeyou ideally want to be eating a fish low on the food chain that doesn't stockpile mercury - something like sardines or anchovies or smelt
Cod is the best. Tuna has high mercury so you don't want multiple servings per week. If you already have gout cod might give u flare ups but if you are normal it's all good. The worm / parasites thing is solved by freezing (and then cooking, but freezing mostly).
