"your children won't know anything about Tuna, Ahi, or Hogfish"
Ahi ⊆ Tuna : Ahi is a kind of Tuna
- sliverstorm 14y agoYou shouldn't be surprised by the confusion. I sometimes suspect it is intentional on the part of restaurants; "ahi" sounds a lot classier than "tuna", because it doesn't make you think of canned tuna.
- dfc 14y agoI understand your point. But when someone starts out their sentence with "I wish I knew what to tell you" you would like to think that they knew that Ahi, AKA yellowfin or bigeye tuna, was two species of tuna. EDIT: subspecies -> two species
- sliverstorm 14y agoI hate myself for this, but- correction- Ahi is not a subspecies. It refers to yellowfin OR bigeye.
- dfc 14y agoDon't hate yourself for teaching me something new;) thanks for the clarification. I always thought Ahi was just yellowfin.
