On the other hand, it's a great supplement, it's fresh and there are
hundreds of ways to prepare and preserve fish. I do recall from
reading dozens of cruising tales from the '50s to the present (the

steak and kidney pudding...now THAT bothers me and confirms my
suspicion that British cuisine is based on a dare.
