Yeah your just not getting the right brands or something, pimps. Nowadays a lot of the frozen stuff is "flash frozen" right on the boat..individually. Honestly, if I had to deal with fresh stuff all the time I just wouldn't eat a lot of seafood.

You can get some pretty good stuff at places like BJ's including already seasoned stuff ready to just cook. Also Trader Joes has some good frozen seafood...I used to get these salmon and tuna "burgers" from there..made fantastic sandwhiches.

I just bought some frozen salmon fillets and some tilapia from bj's again today.

There's other sources. Sounds like you just had some bad luck.

But you are absolutely right about the seafood at the grocery store..it has been thawed from frozen. BUT, since that is the case, if your grocery store carries decent frozen varieties..you are better off with them. Fish that has been frozen and kept frozen until you cook it is going to be better than something frozen and then thawed before you buy it. That is..if it's not the kind of crap it sounds like you've had the bad luck to encounter.

Having said all that...if you can go and get good fresh stuff from a good monger, then that's great.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
