Chilean sea bass

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

Jump to: navigation, search

The Chilean sea bass (Dissostichus eleginoides) is an edible fish native to Earth.

After Shuttlepod 1 was damaged by a microsingularity in 2151, Malcolm Reed ate a ration pack consisting of Chilean sea bass while awaiting rescue. (ENT: "Shuttlepod One")

[edit] Background

The Chilean sea bass is more properly known as the Patagonian toothfish. The name "sea bass" came about as a marketing ploy for selling the fish in the United States.

It is curious that Reed chose the sea bass ration, since his friend Mark Latrelle mentioned that Reed hated fish in "Silent Enemy".
