"Dirty Waters, Dangerous Fish"

[spinnerdoc]

Tilapia is actually quite delicious and I emplore you to compare the level of toxins in a tilapia versus an apex predator such as a lake trout or lake ontario salmon. You might be surprised.

 

Also, not all tilapia eat crap, in fact, they are omnivores. Cutting edge tilapia farming involves growing hyrodponic vegetables in water which is also growing tilapia.

 

But, if the internet and Mike Rowe said it's bad, it must be true!

I agree with you. I grew up eating them although the variety that we had was

smaller than what we see here in North America.

Tilapia is pretty good... They reproduce rapidly, taste delicious, and their aquaculture tanks recycle something like 95% of the water they use.

 

Our family eats a lot of Tilapia.... I wish I could fish some of the ponds on the converted tobacco farms for them
