I hadn't either until I read the view in an article on the topic of
food for desperate survival becoming the exotic fare of posh eateries.


Shark is a lot like tuna steak. Kinda dry IMHO. Best to be marinaded.
I remember a long time ago I had 'bluefish" and it was such  HUGE
portion to this day don't even mention it to me..(I didn't finish it
and it wasn't well prepared. Too dry.

I had alligator nuggets a couple times. They were very good! Taste
like clam only not rubbery. :)
