I Tried A Fish Called Swai: Here Is What I Thought

A quick search for swai online reveals a fish that is subject to some strong opinions. What I want to know is: What is it? Does it taste good? Should I believe the horror stories I have read online? To answer these, and other questions, I picked up a very inexpensive, one-pound package of Legend Bay Brand frozen swai from a local supermarket. I made a quick, no-frills dish of baked swai with potatoes. I can now see why this fish is a major import to the US. However, that isn't exactly a good thing, no matter what fancy badge is on the package.
