SOUTHAVEN, Miss. –– The Catfish Institute (TCI), along with Chef Ivo Puidak of the "Bass Pro Shops Big Cat Quest" television series, performed cooking demonstrations last weekend at the Mid-South Fair featuring tasty U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish. Ken Freeman, of Freeman Outdoor Promotions was also on-hand with the world’s largest mobile aquarium, featuring live catfish, bass and perch.
"U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish is a product I am proud to support," said Chef Ivo. "It's earth-friendly, healthy and versatile. That versatility makes it the perfect substitute in most recipes. Doing cooking demonstrations and providing food samples at the Mid-South Fair is a way to remind people of this great seafood product. It’s American-grown – it just can’t be beat."
