Panga Fish (available in Polish stores); I'll never eat it again. Alternative?

Yes - I have watched probably the same. I don't take any salmon to my mouth since then, and it was my favorite fish. The fresh trout is the best in my mountainous areas.

The simple trick is to stick to local food as opposed to exotics - the closer to the source, the better simply because it requires less processing which is the real culprit in out diets... not to mention the environmental impact involved in transport alone...

Global Fish in central Poland has become the world's first recirculated aquaculture system (RAS) tilapia farm to achieve Aquaculture stewardship Council (ASC) certification.
(Standing ovation with loud cheers)
Tilapia is one of the most eaten fish in Poland because of its availability and low cost.
Tilapia can equal the panga in terms of toxic content.
The panga is at the top of the list of fish with the highest content of toxins.
However, it's being quickly overtaken by the well-known, likable, and affordable tilapia.
Species imported from Vietnam and China, including tilapia meat, a higher concentration of lead was detected compared to other fish.
The tilapia also contained mercury, cadmium and lead. (Yummy)
Never buy frozen tilapia imported from Vietnam, China, Indonesia, or Honduras.
Tilapia is naturally found in Africa, but the ones that end up in Polish stores often come from farms in polluted waters of Asia.
Tilapia farms also exist in Europe, (Central Poland) and the fish from these European farms have been found to have low levels of mercury contamination.


Harry/Lazarus, we fail to see your immature drunken humor.

I don't eat either. And no river fish except for salmon.

trout is better than salmon imho

Walleye and perch are the best IMO

Freaking commercial Fish names suck! If someone gives a fish a bad name; they change it to something else. That said they call this fish Basa here and it is quite good. Of course we do not let them ship in fish raised on a crap diet here so we do not have Health issues. Vietnamese freshwater Catfish is what it is.

BTW the real Panga is a small to medium saltwater rayfin fish. Great eating but rarely sold commercially. Think Bream or Perch

Poland often chooses it, and it's one of the worst fish as it contains a lot of heavy metals.
It is one of the most frequently eaten fish in Poland.

Actually? I thought sardines, sprats and tuna were eaten most often.

Nope, Tilapia is one of the most eaten fish in Poland because of its availability and low cost.

Source?

I would say that Śledź (herring) is the most consumed fish in Poland and Mintaj (pollock), Morszczuk (hake) Dorsz (cod) and maybe Halibut (halibut) Pstrąg (trout) Makrela (mackerel) and Łosoś (salmon) are all more common than tilapia in stores.....

Do you just key into Google, "what is the most eaten fish in Poland?", and then come here?

I actually have no opinion on whether or not you have ever been to Poland, or if you have any relation to Poland whatsoever... but posts like these make me suspicious.

For what it's worth, I don't have anything to do with Poland either (other than grandpa being killed there, and a few drops of dna). My family and friends think I'm suffering from some form of mental illness, because of the time I spend here.

Doesn't Putin pay you anymore?

Putin could never afford me.

I do propaganda for Russia, for free, on my own budget.

I am becoming a specialist on all of Poland's weaknesses, phobias, and familial traumas.

One day, this knowledge will serve me
- I just don't know how.

But I know. You will get the rank of colonel.

Post #38 has it.

Thank you, we love everyone's opinion here.

Alternative is any marine fish which spends its life in open waters.

Here, my fish dishes with the main ingredient cooked over steam and served clean without any dressings or sauces coz they make fishbones hard to find. It doesn`t look very appetising but the taste is OK.

Did you drink that Harnaś in the last photo with raspberry juice?

No, I added Coke later on. hahahaha Harnaś is mediocre beer and I drink it only for patriotic reasons as a Pole living close to the Polish Tatra Mountains.
What you see in this pinkish foam is the remains of my fermented red beetroot juice which I often drink for breakfast. I hadn`t washed my beer mug coz i am economical on water. :):):)
