I went to the closest supermarket to buy cod for fish and chips. The cod
was far past it's prime when I got it home. I took it back, and all the
cod was far past its prime. The grocer suggested tilapia.
I battered and deep fried the tilapia. It tasted OK to me. My wife hated
it. If I could have sold her on tilapia, we'd eat far more fish and
chips than we do.
