I'm in Cabo, Mexico now and visited the local Walmart to find they have Tangs, Triggers and parrotfish for sale to eat. I've tried tangs and triggers before, but not parrotfish. They also have whole octopuss's

It is all fresh too. We were there the night before and that's where the tang was. Then the very next morning they changed the whole display and the triggers appeared. I didn't post pics of the parrotfish....they were huge!
