   For $40 a pound I want something off an Angus and dry aged. My standards   
   were set in the '50s. Where I grew up everybody ate fish on Friday   
   including the Prods with restaurants having Friday specials. It wasn't   
   expensive for recognizable species. Pollock was considered trash fish and   
   stuff like swai was unheard of.
