Why is this guy slicing up a catfish like that? You won’t believe the reason! Back when electricity didn’t exist, the Chinese had a bizarre way of making light—using catfish oil!
Catfish are loaded with fat, and people discovered that heating them over hot coals released enough oil to be used as fuel. They’d collect the oil and use it to light their homes!
So, what started as a simple meal also became a source of illumination. Crazy, right? Imagine using fish oil instead of light bulbs today!
