Time to learn how to cook carp!

Got a recipe? So far, every recipe seems to taste like sh*&t from
what I'm
reading.

--Mike

They had a feature about cooking carp on the WGN news. Apparently it
has a bit more flavor and is not quite as flaky as some fish. I'm not
much of a fish eater, but it seems like most of the flavor comes from
the sauce, anyway.

Could be good resource for the cat food industry, plus it would not
have to be shipped from China.

Well, maybe. But what if it wipes out the sport and commercial fishery
in the Great Lakes?

I don't think they were eating the Asian Carp. you can't catch them on a
hook and line either.
This was a PR thing by and for the hand full of shippers and Illinois
Politicians. They don't give a damn if the US turns into another third
world country in all degrees as long as their pockets are filled.
