Cobia taste great. As do most fish with a crab diet. For those in the northeast, a tautog or blackfish is a prime example.

So what do crabs eat that makes them taste great?

Wait a minute, on the Saratoga thread, you said you LOVED animals!!

We animal lovers love animals differently and in our own way. I'd wager that my "love" of animals is as great and intense as anyone's!

They are like the vacuum cleaners of the ocean. Lots of fish scraps from the by product of predator fish kills on smaller fish. Also shrimp, clams, mussels…etc.

Children’s toes. At least that’s what I told my kids to keep them out of the water unless I was with them.

Salmon Teeth (Facts and Pictures of All Types of Salmon) – Strike and Catch

Wow! Had no idea Salmons looked so ferocious, kind of like a toned-down but slightly elongated Piranha? All these years because Salmon meat tastes so good and so colorful, I had always assumed they were cuddly and friendly looking fish, like those happy cows roaming California.

Exactly! But, red or orange instead of blue. Nemo was blue, right? LOL Though, dining on Nemo would be something even too weird for me to contemplate.

Mrs. javabytes likes fish quite a bit (I do not), but I recently acquired some for her from my go-to meat guy (who runs a high-end meat business and is fastidious about sourcing) and she said it was among the best salmon she's ever eaten. She grew up on the east coast and is acclimated mostly to Atlantic salmon. She cooked this herself the day it arrived, so it was incredibly fresh... of course what you can get in a restaurant may vary in that regard... but she gave it her strongest endorsement and now I'm in trouble because she's already hooked on Australian wagyu too...

You could try bluefish, but they aren't cuddly.
