I always knew these were scavenger fish. I mean hell, they call shrimp "water roaches" But after watching these fuckers feast on BACTERIA on one of the Planet Earth installments last night I'm really fucking grossed out.

I just sauteed a whole BAG of shrimp last night! I already shy away from catfish but can I really give up the delightful flavor of shrimp/crab/lobster??? HUH??

So tell me - the seafood that's in our food chain... those muthafuckas are eating bacteria?

Why am I asking this - I know the shit is gross no matter what. I'm just not ready to give up seafood Are there ANY clean fish? What's the cleanest fish to eat?

All seafood is digusting.

But I did eat coconut shrimp the other day and it was fucking awesome,

when i was a kid, every now and then a crawdad would wind up on our front steps and it would freak me the hell out. those things are FUG.

It is!

I am trying to force myself to eat it because I know it is good for you but your thread is not helping.

JustErin said:

Sorry You should have seen them though, it was so damn gross. I guess all animals are to a degree but DAMN

its the sweet smell/taste of death decaying

YUMMMAY!

What about clam strips?

Don't tell me these things!!



I've basically cut out all meat from my diet other than seafood. I was hoping to keep it.

Now, maybe not...

JustErin said:

false , it is NOT good for you. scavangers have simple digestive systems, and the stuff they eat, decaying dead materials, thier own shit etc. is poisonous. The toxins immediately become part of thier flesh.

You wanna eat that tripe?

i like seaweed salad. it's kind of seafood and doesn't eat bacteria.

all of these things are the oceans and lakes vacuume cleaners, so in other words your eating a vacuume bag full of whatever they cleaned off the floor of the lake/ocean.

YUM!

Everything eats bacteria...including us. What do you think that funk is that emanates from our mouths when we wake up in the morning?

unfortunately the seas are over fished and over polluted
with metals like mecury..

bacteria is ok, its the other shit that worries me

but certain bacteria are good and others are bad.
and we usually try to eat the good in order to control the bad.

also its not only bacteria but other toxins givin off by dead things that are poisonous to humans.
I think alot of people think poison mean immeadiate death. But it doesnt.
It can just mean long term abnormal funtions of the body. Such as allergies, which are a giant indication of your immune response not behaving correctly.

I LOVE seafood!

I've never tasted catfish though.....

your not missing anything, it taste like rotting garbage.

They showed them eating a dead carcas that had floated to the ocean floor. I mean, I knew it, I'd just never seen it. It's like when a meat eater goes to a slaughter house & can't eat meat again after they see the process... or something

Ribbed4UrPleasure said:

That's ok. I feel tons better, and have better skin, hair, etc. because I eat lots of seafood. It's a main part of my diet.

I only worry about mercury levels.

CalhounSq said:

I eat only organic meat from local farmers.
Thier ethics and handleing are much different then those giant slaughter houses.

minneapolisgenius said:

seafood or fish?

CalhounSq said:

I'd rather eat a fish that had that in its system than canned and processed food which has bugs and by-products in it. They say that in almost every canned food or pre-packaged food, you're eating cockroach bits anyway. They get into everything at the factory and they can't really do anything about it.

I never eat anything out of a can, except maybe tuna once every month or so.

So anyways.....if ya ask me all food that is a living thing, meat, is fucking disgusting. AND milk/eggs. all of it.....GROSS GROSS GROSS.

I mean, I eat it. But man. YUCK.

Ribbed4UrPleasure said:

Fish usually, but I do eat mussels, shrimp, etc. from time to time. Not as much as fresh fish though.

This thread is about SCAVENGERS in the sea and people who eat them.

Scavengers are NOT Tuna, Salmon, Mackerel, SEA WEED etc.

we dont want to confuse anyone

SCAVENGERS ARE: shrimp, lobster, clams,catfish etc.
things that eat other dead things
Pigs are also scavengers. AKA bottom feeders
