If You Knew Sushi Like I Know Sushi
I admit, I'm not a big seafood eater. I know, we're always being told how good it is for us, and how we should have it x numbers of times a week, so I try to remember to have it occasionally, but that's the best I can do. There's just something about fish that tastes so, well, fishy. I had crocodile a couple of times when I was in Africa. Crocodile tastes like absolutely nothing. You have to serve it with a seafood sauce or bread it and fry it for it to have some semblance of flavor. Nowadays fish seems to have lost a lot of whatever appeal it had as a healthy substitute for meat, what with the oceans loading up with toxins and fish farms pumping fish full of steroids and stuff. The day is not far off when we'll be told that artificial food concocted in laboratories from chemicals and infused with ersatz flavor is far better for us than the real stuff. The scary thing is it's probably true.

One of my other favorite cartoonists is Richard Guindon. He did one of a pierside shack with two signs. Sushi and Live bait. roger
Euuuw Roger! (((LOL)))
John... fish is full of mercury. You are wise to only have it occasionally. Living on the edge of the Great Barrier Reef I feel okay about having it from time to time (esp. the reef varieties) but farm fish as you so rightly point out are (sadly) more than likely to be the way of the future. Massive problems occur when man sticks his nose into nature.
Love the cartoon... fish tanks... mmmm... the kids had one once. But it was me who cried each time one of those little fellas died. Whoever said you can't love a fish? ~grin~
interesting concept, John C. the agony on the face of the fish is brilliant. (grin)
