    Cod is super cheap and light texture and flavor.. And not farmed in Thailand. Give it a try!

    Seafood fraud, mislabeling....it's hard to tell where any seafood really comes from.

    Most fish is very expensive per pound, and for many people, tilapia, which is the cheapest white fish, is an affordable source of fish protein, and it's versatile. I often use it to make fish tacos. Once in a while, I can get a nice piece of cod for around $5 a lb., but haddock can be as high as $8. While we're all encouraged to eat fish as a good source of protein and omegas, we're not offered too many affordable options. If you're feeding fish to your family, you're talking $10-$15 a meal, just for the protein. I typically need to buy 1.5 lbs. to feed myself and 2 adult males.
