Diarrhea Fish?
Monday, February 26th, 2007
Some Canadians became ill after eating oilfish, a low-grade fish barely fit for human consumption that may have been mislabelled as cod. Oilfish — also known as escolar and snake mackerel — contains high amounts of a waxy type of oil. The fish is indigestible for about one in every two people, causing diarrhea as a side-effect. Ew.

That kind of story makes me so glad that I hate fish as a type of food.
Hey maybe we could market this as a new weight loss diet.
been there done that
now can we talk tile fish?
that’s just pure oily nasty
They should have gained a clue by the tiny butthole in the middle. Cod doesn’t have that.
I like the idea of a diarrhea fish. Is it fresh water? It would make a great excuse for pool accidents. “It wasn’t me! it was that damn fish – I hate that thing”!
I’m sure someone up at the Brighton Ski Resort must have eaten that for lunch…the restrooms were disgusting…yum! Eat up Canada!
I for one can’t get enough of the stuff.
