A Taiwanese grandmother steamed her grandson's expensive fish

A pet fish worth an estimated US$3000 was cooked by an elderly woman in Taiwan after she apparently claimed keeping the fish would be a waste of water. A picture of a steamed red arowana was posted to Facebook just a few days ago. The netizen who posted it, surnamed Chang, said the delicious dish used to be his friend’s pet fish and claimed his buddy’s grandmother had steamed the fish because she thought keeping it was wasting too much water. This isn’t the first case of a steamed red arowana as curious netizens have managed to dig up a slew of similar stories. Another grandmother in the southern Chinese city of Kunming cooked a red arowana just three months ago and apparently loved the taste of the fish. Some suspicious netizens, however, are calling shenanigans on Chang and claiming he might have copied the Chinese report.
