Tried tuna enough to know I prefer something else. Haddock is good, as are flatfish like sole etc.Quote:

I you really liked fish, you'd eat it on the bone (un-filleted), like I do, and fresh, not frozen or part of a ready meal. Then it actually tastes like FISH, i.e. you can taste the sea off it, not a cardboard cut-out of such, and you'd also eat seafood.
However, you can only like what you like, but this is why something like 90% of the gorgeous fresh fish and seafood we have on our shores goes abroad, to the likes of France and Spain, as Brits don't like it or don't know what to do with it!!:ner:

That's fine, but 'muddy' it ain't, unless a) there was something wrong with it to start with, or b) it wasn't cooked properly. Simples:)Quote:

Just give me a fresh lobster, buttered crusty wholemeal bread, a lump of good stilton, side salad, homemade mayo and I'm in heaven! :D
i never eat boney fish or on bone as i got a bone stuck in back of throat once and it near killed me.... throat got badly infected etc.. so im careful now. Mostly white fish like haddock and cod, plus salmon or filleted trout.Quote:

A) don't you get bored with that [I'd be climbing the walls, lol], and b) why not be a little more adventurous with food and explore your sexy French side?:eyebrows:
Marco.
Well I put mayo on my chips. Does that count? :lol:
Yeah I know, I was just yanking yer chain... But you can see my point though, surely? Isn't it ironic that we live on an island, which is indigenous with some of the best fish and seafood in the world, and yet the vast majority of our population don't eat it? We just say 'nah, no thanks' and send it abroad...Quote:
