Interesting, @CelticCrafter

 

Yes, the price made me laugh (tilapia is plentiful and cheap where I live).

 

"Dirty" as in they are scavenger fish (i.e. a non-review), or dirty as in the quality of what QVC is offering is yucky? And if they're farmed, then how "dirty" they are can be modified, right?

 

Catfish are also scavengers, and I don't think Southerners will stop eating them anytime soon. I've had it when I really liked it, and I've had it when it was yucky quality - but I can say that about most fish/shellfish.


 

Farm raised catfish are fed a specific diet in a very clean environment.   As a southerner, I do not eat wild caught catfish only the small ones harvested from local farms. They are delicious!   In Alabama the law states that all seafood must show country of origin on the label.   The Alabama farmers are very proud of their product and often you will find the name of the farm on the label as well.  I never eat tilapia.   There are just too many other choices out there, tilapia would be the last on my list.

Thank you, @sunshine45 - I don't know why I couldn't see it either. I went in and out and refreshed my browser but no-go. But there are so many tiny glitches here...

 

So, a non-review. Like people reviewing Clark's shoes as horrible and berating QVC for selling leather.
