In fact, it is not only a very dangerous fish species for human beings, but also an edible fish species. So although it will attack people, there are still a large number of piranhas caught and eaten by humans every year. Like the aborigines near the Amazon basin, they like to roast piranhas directly on the fire.
3. Can piranha be eaten? From the above, we know that the answer is yes, so is it delicious? Because it is more aggressive and generally swims faster, its meat will be thicker and not too slippery to eat, but it is quite chewy to bite. But its belly meat will be tender and slippery, and its skin will be thick and sticky.
However, we should also remind everyone that they are very aggressive. According to experts, they have sharp teeth, so sharp that they can easily bite off a fish hook made of steel or a person's finger. Once they find prey, they often attack in groups. Piranha can eat a rib head of a live cow in 10 minutes. So everyone must pay attention to their own safety.
A few years ago, I met a piranha seller in the market. I don't know what kind of fish it is. The fishmonger just laughed and didn't say what kind of fish it was. He only said 7 yuan a catty, and each fish was about 1.5 catty. It looked a bit like pomfret, so I bought two by the way. When I got home, I immediately stewed one. To tell you the truth, it tastes really bad, and I really can't compliment it. Later, I looked it up online and found that this kind of fish is called "piranha", which is piranha. I mumbled to myself for a few days. How did this thing grow up? Have you ever eaten carrion? . . Can I eat? I haven't eaten it since, and I dare not eat it!
