I have 28 years experience in fish business, never heard of that one, be a made up name for Ling, or Coley, or some Pacific species like Hoki, or could even be "silver Hake", the Pacific variety , they pushing that and Canadian Pollock to chippies wholesale these days.

Industrially farmed in Vietnam along the Mekong River, Pangas or whatever theyre calling it, has only been recently introduced to the French market. However, in a very short amount of time, it has grown in popularity in France. The French are slurping up Pangas like its their last meal of soup noodles. They are very, very affordable (cheap), are sold in filets with no bones and they have a neutral (bland) flavor and texture; many would compare it to cod and sole, only much cheaper. But as tasty as some people may find it, theres, in fact, something hugely unsavory about it. I hope the information provided here will serve as very important information for you and your future choices. Heres why I think it is better left in the shops (and not on your dinner plates): 1. Pangas are teeming with high levels of poisons and bacteria. (industrial effluents, arsenic, and toxic and hazardous by-products of the growing industrial sector, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), DDT and its metabolites (DDTs), metal contaminants, chlordane-related compounds (CHLs), hexachlorocyclohexane isomers (HCHs), and hexachlorobenzene (HCB)). The reasons are that the Mekong River is one of the most polluted rivers on the planet and this is where pangas are farmed and industries along the river dump chemicals and industrial waste directly into it. To Note: a friend lab tests these fish and tells us to avoid eating them due to high amounts of contamination. Regardless of the reports and recommendations against selling them, the supermarkets still sell them to the general public knowing they are contaminated. |

Once had turbot and *****in a very ordinary looking chippy in Aberdeen. Best I have ever had.

By:
SAW A PROG WHERE A GUY on Jersey , was using one of the undeground Tunnels the Nazis had built by Slave labour in ww2 , as a "river" for breeding Turbot ...
they are bottom dwellers and so do NOT like sunlight , so this was ideal for them .. He had tens of thousands of them ...takes them small , breeds them , and then takes them 5 years to reach the size where he gets £14-99p a turbot off the people he sells to .. :-) |

Could replace the word 'Panga' with 'Pot Noodle' imo. |
