- riku_iki 3y agoI am not sure that fish(like very small anchovy) is in grade to effectively feed humans.
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoWhat does this mean? Anchovies are normal food sold at the supermarket. https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/306930957 https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/306930957 https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/310103367 https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/310103367
- riku_iki 3y agothat's likely larger and more mature presorted units. Salmon can eat smaller ones. You can tell from the price that those cost more than actual salmon. I am not expert, I am just speculating that if you dig into details, picture can be very different.
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoThis outright silly, salmon tastes better and thats why people eat it. There isn't some great mystery about small fish being less edible. I regularly go to the fish market, small seafood like anchovi and shrimp can be bought 4 times cheaper than salmon.
