As Food
In Thailand this fish is known as Pla Duk Dan (Thai: ปลาดุกด้าน). It is a common inexpensive food item, prepared in a variety of ways, being often offered by street vendors, especially barbecued or fried.
In Coastal Karnataka (India), it is called Mugudu (Tulu: ಮುಗುಡು) and is considered a delicacy.

Famous quotes containing the word food:
“At the violet hour, the evening hour that strives
Homeward, and brings the sailor home from sea,
The typist home at teatime, clears her breakfast, lights
Her stove, and lays out food in tins.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“It’s so easy during those first few months to think that the problems will never end. You feel as if your son will never sleep through the night, will always spit up food after eating, and will never learn to smile—even though you don’t know any adults or even older children who still act this way.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
