    Most regulatory agencies classify Chilean sea bass as “overfished,”…

    They changed the name to something which is morally not cool to eat.

    Did they put an an “AI” in charge of marketing?

      It’s intentionally stupid, which is why it’s not a permanent change.

      They just want people to talk about it, send pictures of it to their friends, etc, and be an avenue for reminding people that goldfish crackers exist.

      morals never effected most peoples eating habits, honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if the average American would eat homosapien if it was properly prepared.
