What is a poor man's fish?

4 min read
Before the 19th century, lobster was considered a 'poor man's food' and fed to prisoners because it was so plentiful and inexpensive. Today, the term "poor man's fish" refers to a variety of affordable, accessible, and often underrated fish species that provide excellent nutritional value for a low cost. These fish offer a high-protein, healthy option for budget-conscious consumers seeking to add more seafood to their diet.
