Long John Silvers in Winnemucca, NV today

No, no, no.......never again.

I had 'fish-n-chips' and it was really nasty.

Bill, Was it it the whole meal or the fish?

I've noticed lately a lot of Arrowtooth Flounder showing up in the market.

Check this article out that was in the Anchorage Daily News just yesterday. This could explain the lousy meal I recently had at Long John Silvers in Anderson Ca. recently.

YUCK! I had no idea... Does the fish only go to mush when cooked? Can you eat it as sashimi?

Then Soylent Yellow is Arrowtooth Flounder.

" Recently, several food grade additives have been successfully used that inhibit enzymatic breakdown. These discoveries have recently enabled a targeted fishery in the Kodiak Island area for marketable products including surimi and frozen fillets."

Winco had fillets on ice in their fresh / frozen seafood case for under $3.00 /lb. this past week. The price alone should be the first hint. It's also passed off as Turbot ( which it is not ) and Green Sole.

With all this effort to balance out the ecosystem by marketing this mush, who's going to jump into the Asian Carp market first? I hear it's not bad.

The nice thing about Arrowtooth Flounder fillets is that you can check the cooked fillets for stray bones, by simply pouring the fillet from the sauté pan directly into a strainer. The resulting porridge will be bone free and denture friendly.
