what's the deal with lake trout and why is it always so cheap? It's $5.99/lb for fresh at my local grocer. Is it because they're bottom dwellers?

Nigga, get some swai/basa/pangasius if you want cheap. Them shits is $1.99/lb. Or squid, for fuck's sake. That's $1.49/lb for whole, uncleaned squid, $1.99-$2.49 for cleaned and $3.99 for cut up squid rings, nuggets, curls and/or tentacles.

Also, Hamburger Helper is not a great deal either. You just paid $1.99 for 5oz of pasta and three bouillon cubes.
