… not cheap though at nearly $30/lb at Whole Foods and not any cheaper anywhere else in my area. Looks like we overfished the hell out of this fish and it’s natural habitat is near the cold Antarctic waters. We need to make more of this tasty fish.😋
Chilean sea bass is very tasty…

I find it difficult to eat Chilean sea bass right after watching a couple of velociraptors maul a cow.

Are the sea bass ill-tempered?

Sea Bass is my favorite fish

Chilean sea bass is one of the most over fished species out there. It is popular because like Tilapia it is a fish that doesn't taste like fish. They are slow growers and take about 10-14 years to reach maturity. As a slow grower, their populations are very sensitive to over fishing. Also, they tend to have very high levels of mercury.
If cooked well, a lot of fish that are considered "by catch" are actually delicious, sustainable and very healthy. Mackerel, red mullet, dorade, trout, and the flat fish (fluke, flounder, halibut) are all great as long as they are wild caught and not farmed.

What's your favourite fish?

You are right, it is delicious.

I saw one at my local aquarium. So maybe try there, cheaper to get in than it is to pay for fish at whole foods.

Yes they are,
although I bought them from random online stores and track shipments from but next time I will make sure that I order it from your store as it looks more promising.01 -

Hmm, the mercury levels are indeed very high, bummer!
