Why don't they have food value? What does that mean?

It's an interesting sentence in the article, but needs to be expanded upon. Why no food value? Does it taste bad? What does it it taste like? Shoe leather? Mud? Or is it full of millions of tiny bones? Or is it gristly?

This is the stuff that good article writing is made of, plus it's a key relevant fact. So more detail is needed.

Removed "They are also known to eat humans.". Don't know a lot about fish, but this seems extremely unlikely. It had a reference, but that did not support the claim at all. Smocking (talk) 17:34, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edited "They fall prey to sharks, porpoise, alligators, and birds" because once they are mature there is few creatures that can touch them due to there size except for very large sharks, and even then it is primarily due to anglers altering their behavior.
