Herring
Fun Fact: The smaller-sized fish that are at the bottom of the food chain have a tendency to be a better choice. They reproduce and grow fast, and they contain less pollutants. Herring is one of the world’s most amazing sources of vitamin D.
And as we know, vitamin D protects your bones, prevents numerous cancers, and boosts your heart health. In fact, Herring has about 300 IUs per 3oz serving. This fish is simply scrumptious when it’s smoked.
Although that also means it will be loaded with sodium, so you should eat it in moderation. A lighter take on this dish could be with Greek yogurt and stevia. Another option is to eat it with vinegar and raw chopped onions.

You said nothing about a great eating fish, the Catfish!!

Bottom feeding fish…yum!
So Americans that have been here all of their live cannot even get it.
What about Cod? I usually only buy Cod, shrimp and wild salmon
Cod is one of my faves…..
what about haddock
What about flounder?
All Atlantic salmon are farm raised.
Shrimp and catfish from the orient are raised in filthy farm Ponds where they are usually feed pig and human feces.
Mackerel are great smoked, as are also catfish or any other oily fish. Usually fish are soaked in a salty brine before smoking. But you can also immediately smoke fish on your bar b que grill without using a brine.
The best canned sardines I’ve ever found are by far King Oscars. I’ve never found a canned sardine that can compare
My biggest let down in canned fish is Starkist tuna.
Ever since they stopped canning tuns in American Samoa and moved to Thailand there canned tuna is like cat food. It looks like the scrap meat that is left over after the chunks have been used elsewhere.
Pelosi owns a lot of stock in Starkist, and I would not be surprised if she had something to do with the move!
I was looking for Perch because I was thinking about ordering it for lunch.
