Traditionally a popular and affordable food in the Philippines with a mild taste, tilapia has been the fourth-most consumed fish in the United States since 2002, favored for its low cost and easy preparation. It is commonly fried or broiled as part of a dish.
 
== Etymology ==
The name "tilapia" is derived from Modern Latin, originating from the Greek word "tilon," which refers to a fish mentioned by Aristotle, combined with "apios," meaning "distant." As tilapia is native to Egypt, it was familiar to the ancient Greeks.
