i don't like fish, tho i can tolerate eating fried fish and i kinda like broiled catfish (which i tried in america, because here in chile everyone looks me weird when i ask about catfish so i guess it's not popular everywhere?)

Same, to the point I say I'm allergic to it to avoid eating it altogether, lol. Only fish I can tolerate is tuna (with something else) and Mexican christmas codfish.

omg same. i pretty much eat everything under the sun EXCEPT fish and seafood, but people look at me with hate lmao so i usually say i'm allergic.
also tuna with avocado is <3 (tho i tolerate tuna, i don't really like it)

Ikr? They give you this look and then go "How can you hate it? Just try it!", but no, Susan. I've tried it a dozen times before and I still hate seafood.

Tuna in avocado is good, with a tiny amount. Or hardshell tuna tacos; the toppings usually mask the taste of fish.

Mmm, tacos.
