About Fish
Fish are cold-blooded aquatic vertebrates. Fish are also one of the most commonly consumed foods in the world. They are an excellent source of protein, low in fat, and one of the best sources for omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s have been shown to have vascular benefits, mental health benefits and even improve eye-site. Fish and seafood come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, colors and flavors. Fish can be prepared any way imaginable - eaten raw, cooked with citric acid, broiled, baked, smoked, fried, cooked on a spit, boiled, in a soup, in a taco, by itself, with rice, with noodles, on a kabob... No matter how you do it, fish is delicious.
