The Real Chicken of The Sea
No this isn't a self reflective post about my fear of water. I can't swim, but I am not afraid of water. This is about that phrase, "chicken of the sea". A brand uses it for their line of can seafood products. This brand was famously, the reasons of Jessica Simpson's blunder while still married to Nick of 98 degrees while on their reality show. Jessica didn't know that Chicken of the sea wasn't actually chicken. Tuna, they corrected her, but you know what, I don't think tuna should be the chicken of the sea.
Tuna is a super big fish, probably the biggest fish humans commonly consume. Chickens aren't that big compared to other things we eat. I'll say tuna would more closely be the Cow of the sea, we eat beef all the time, and that's the biggest animal we eat.
The other major animal we eat is pig, or pork. Pigs are big, and very slightly more exotic than cow. For that reason I'd say that salmon is the pork of the sea. Salmon doesn't have the reach of beef, and also that both naturally have worms and parasites. It's a fitting analogy.
So what is the chicken of the sea? I need to find a fish small but widely consumed. Chickens are also mashed up and put into nuggets. Fish stick also get that treatment and those choice fish for that bulk procedure is, either halibut or cod. Both are smaller than tuna and salmon. They are also widely eaten. So those two, shit I couldn't pick one, would be a way better choice than tuna for the title of chicken of the sea.
