Why are the majority of fish species palatable to humans but not the majority of reptiles, birds, and mammals?

but they arent? confirmation bias you only see the ones in restaurant/store that are sufficiently palatable, all the not-palatable ones are chilling out in the ocean not being caught

Fish spend their entire lives swimming in their own waste products which keeps their flesh tender and flavorful.

I don’t necessarily disagree, but I feel like macroeconomics of fishing COULD be responsible for this more than “fish that taste yucky”. Anecdotally I’ve tasted probably 30 different kinds of fish and enjoy them all (fun question OP). I’d like to see an excel list of regular meaty fish (so no weird ass jellyfish or sea cucumber shits) and a flavor profile. Somebody ChatGPT this and post? Never mind I asked it myself. Wtf is with this 900 second bullshit?

In this case the individual doing the selection is not involved in the argument. The statement reads more as "I like fish therefore I like all fish."

Your question is based on a false assumption.
That being said, most people eat what they got used to eating while being kids. And most kids are fed what is available which is fish. Good luck cathing birds outside and dealing with bones for an hour to get a tiny bit of meat. The same with reptiles. While any fish from tiny to large can be cooked pretty fast.

On second thought, I've decided that your word choice is lacking rather than the framing of the question.
"Palatable" means it tastes good. "meh, it's ok" is not synonymous with "palatable." Thus, most fish, being bland, is certifiably unpalatable.

What are some "bad" fish then? We can basically name a fish and people are eating it somewhere. Maybe not in huge amounts because it's a pain in the ass to cultivate, but we'll still eat it. Blob fish from way down under? Yum. Giant fucking sea lice on the ocean floor like something out of Cloverfield? Yep Taiwanese are throwing them in their ramen. Give it up dude, we love fishes.

To humans they aren't either. That's unless we talk about the Chinese.
>reptiles, birds, and mammals
All of these are palatable to the chinese.
