>>1164616Still not a tilapia fan. I also see it marketed in stores as some great amazing exotic thing, when it's literally just farmed junk fish. Carp and catfish aren't too great either, IMO. I don't mind (wild) catfish too much, it's inoffensive at best, but only if it's caught at the right place/right season. But that muddy taste some describe I have encountered.
If that's what you've got where you live, OK, whatever, make do.
Maybe I am also spoiled because I grew up on coast and just generally prefer saltwater fish.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned edible snails, which are easy as piss to raise, if you can get over any squeamishness. Just avoid the giant african variety which are invasive species.
