Nevermind the ethics, I think what we all want to know is the logistics of frying just the middle of a fish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.70.113 (talk) 05:31, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Just the middle? It looks to me like the tail's fried too (and the article seems to imply this; it talks about the fresh and living head, but doesn't mention the tail). Just the middle has sauce poured over it in the picture, but that doesn't mean that just the middle is fried. I'm guessing only the head is left out of the oil (or whatever it's fried in). ----Smeazel (talk) 07:56, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]


From here the expression "up the Yin Yang"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.116.101 (talk) 20:44, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

'Animal rights activists'

[edit]

Whilst it is probable that animal rights activists have protested and / or critized this act, the majority of sources online on the topic are from regular people. I am removing reference to 'animal rights activists' as it represents a point of view implying only activists or people with a political agenda for prevention of cruelty to animals are appalled by it as opposed to broad global condemnation by people of all agendas and walks of life.

origin of the dish

[edit]

Both sources says it's learned from Sichuan. ("老闆說,這是他在四川學的料理" [1] "推出「陰陽活魚」的王姓業者,是十二年前到大陸四川習得製作技巧" [2]) --Yel D'ohan (talk) 17:37, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is it a common or fringe dish?

[edit]

This video has recently gone viral in Twitter, and I was surprised to find a Wikipedia page. All sources point to the same incident in 2007 in a restaurant. This was most likely a chef who made up a crazy dish and received backlash. There is no other evidence this is common anywhere else.

Is there any native chinese or taiwanese that can confirm this is a real thing that is served daily in China or Taiwan? If not, I think it should be deleted as having a wiki page may mislead people into thinking this is a real common thing. Cosmia2 (talk) 06:12, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
