Cappy is right. I have even sold them a few times in my store. They are very similar to hogfish (the meat).

how did the fishing turn out and did you cook up that parrot?
Are you home yet?
Yes, I am home. Ended up not keeping any parrot fish, just felt kinda weird. Maybe too much conflicting info and they are pretty fish. I’ll do a report tonight with a few pics.
Absolutely safe and good to eat. Dive or Snorkel around them and listen to them “crunch” the corral! As for the slim around the head… who eats those anyway? On a serious note, if you want the skin on and not fillet it off, put a little dawn on them and wash after scaling… rinsing really well.
