Talapia has been given enough chances, but I have come to accept that it
just isn't very good, no matter how it is prepared. Heck, I even tried
it a couple ethnic places where I had hoped that they might have found a
better way to prepare it. It was my fault. The menus said that the fish
was talapia, and the dishes turned out to be just as bad as I had
thought they might be when I saw that it was talapia. I hope that I
have learned.
