I’m guessing he didn’t try one breaded and fried? That would be an awesome culinary blog, guy follows researchers around and makes unique dishes with the various exotic creatures they find.
As any other fish that eats mainly other fishes, should be tasty, but is small and endangered also, so we shouldn't do it.
I'm all about breeding <endangered life thing> massively even if we the price is to fry and eat a small amount of them as a result. Each extra dollar to conservation of obscure animals counts in large amounts, but frogfish reproduction has some characteristics that made very complicated to breed them. They can't breed in normal aquariums.
