Today, Friday, is one of the many days, especially during Lent, when one eats a fish plate. Fish plates typically consist of macaroni and cheese, peas, potato salad, cake, bread/dinner roll, and CATFISH… Why on Earth do people insist on cooking and eating not only the least hygienic fish of the sea but the very fish nearly all salt fisherman throw back in the water saying something like this while catching one, “Da–, it aint nun but a motha f—in’ hardhead!” We have such better tasting variety in our waters in South Louisiana: croakers, redfish, speckled trout, white trout, flounder, black drum, etc for virtually everywhere but the high end restaurants selling fish plates with nothing else but “motha f—in’ hardhead.” See below:
