Catfish is not great.

  It's hardly a substitute for salmon.

    Some people prefer catfish over salmon. Tastes vary. Catfish is a pretty good substitute for salmon in terms of macronutrients. Salmon does have higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids. But catfish may be safer in terms of heavy metals and other toxins, depending on where the fish were raised.

    No, but it's a very sustainable fishery (and way tastier than tilapia IMO, the other popular land-based-farm fish)

  As a former midwesterner I cannot understand why catfish shows up on coastal menus. For the lulz? Outside of New Orleans, the only other useful preparation of catfish is pet food.
