Default Re: fish that has an ammonia taste to it ???

Yep its Catfish from Asia, mostly from the Mekong in Vietnam. Watched a pretty interesting doco on the farming process a while back, Catfish are great for cleaning up Human waste.

You should check out the process of making crab sticks, done at sea from rendering down all the waste fish and bones into a liquid then using that to make them, yum yum.


We need better labelling in Aust with regard to seafood, as an example I bought some labeled Carpentaria Australian Prawns last year thinking they were 100% local. Well they are sort of caught here but then shelled and deveined in China. It was clearly printed in microscopic size on the back of the bottom vacuum sealed edge of the bag. WTF, how do we know we are getting the same prawns back and where are they doing it exactly.

Another one that might shock you is Tassie scallops, some of those go to china for processing too, straight there from the processor here and straight back
