That is a good price. Haddock is the same family as cod and pollock. In UK haddock is probably the most preferred sea food and a mainstay in fish and chip shops.

We like both cod and haddock. Strangely, smaller sized pike can taste like cod depending on how it is prepared.

Some species of fish are almost entirely farm raised e.g. Atlantic Salmon.

I find that farmed Atlantic Salmon taste pretty much as good as the wild salmon used to. But, some farmed trout are have soft consistency in their flesh and don't compare to wild trout.

As far as I know haddock are not farmed, but cod are.
