I hate everything about this photo... Really, like everything. I mean, this really is a genuine shit post. Like if I wasn't so flabbergasted, I would just closed my browser and go back what I was doing. But here we are... OPs fish abomination and my eye balls, now married in a photonic exchange that I wish never happened... You win OP.

My uninformed impression and story I made up seeing an admin badge, is that someone reported this, and an admin came down to see what it was about, only to throw their hands up and say "well shit it doesnt break any rules but I too hate it!"

Thank you jello, I'm sorry my post has assaulted your eyes to the point that your day is ruined, however I am honored to have won lol

Disrespectful and wasteful as hell.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 6 months ago

I don't think the person who made the dish and wrote the caption are the same person, I'm going to guess this is a different dish entirely, albeit with a viscerally disturbing presentation.

[–] WelcomeBear 18 points 6 months ago

Why? Other than being an ugly fish, this is no different than stuffed crab, stuffed clams, oysters Rockefeller, lemon stuffed grilled branzino, etc.
These poor fish are just ugly as hell and the dish itself taken out of context and labeled “Tacos.” I’d never thought about it before your comment but it seems to me that including the whole animal on the plate is the least wasteful and most respectful way to eat it. When you can see its face, there’s no hiding that what you’re eating was once sentient. How much is wasted is left for the person holding the fork to decide.

I believe this is trunk fish, which is a Caribbean delicacy and absolutely delicious. My guess is that they have already minced and seasoned the meat and are experimenting by smoking the meat inside the hollowed out fish.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago

Yeah, my first guess is the person who made the dish didn't make the meme and they aren't really meant to be tacos.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Lovecraftian horrors aside, that actually does sound really, really good if done well. I kinda want to try it now... The outer fish-body isn't eaten, but just to give flavor when smoking it, right?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

I think it would be a way to retain the juices and flavors, and so the meat doesn't dry out during the smoke process. Probably also a way to mellow the smoke flavor in the mix. The body would end up REALLY smokey and bitter but the meat inside would have hints of smoke. It really does seem as something that would be delicious.

I have eaten this kind of fish before they taste really good. It has white meat, flaky and tender texture. Has similar taste with parrot fish. Though it's a bit weird presentation stuffing in stuff in it. Usually it's just grilled right away.

Wasteful in every sense. Not funny!

[–] Exusia 8 points 6 months ago

Wasteful? My brother it is a dish. You eat it out of the shell.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

It's definitely disgusting, but wasteful? I'd argue it's the opposite since you're also eating the skin and head.
