Ynetnews reports:
As it turns out, gefilte fish is subjected to specific regulations. According to the relevant standard (number 841for those who care) for preserving fish, applicable to carp preserved in gefilte fish sauce, each piece is supposed to be made of carp alone.

“It turns out that the stuffed fish pieces suffer from serious discrimination in Israel,” a statement by the importers said.
