What are you eating right now?

Photo of a dish served earlier this month at Golden China Restuarant in Nome, AK. I will be there next week and am seeing what might be available for chow. Maybe AM should join me for their for a meal.

The inevitability of fish. Fatty fish lowers triglycerides, is antiatherosclerotic, has anti-inflammatory properties, benefits the immune system, is rich in lysine, and is rich in Vitamin B2 and D and minerals. I stick with wild-caught smaller fish like sardines, herring, mackerel, and trout. I prefer them smoked. Smoked kippers are easy to find. I make sure they come in BPH-free containers. I also eat wild salmon if I can verify where it came from. The same goes for tuna. Safe Catch is a good brand for tuna, salmon, and mackerel. They test for mercury. I stay away from bottom feeders and from most Northern Atlantic fish. Sodium content varies wildly between brands. Did I mention I love smoked fish? I ate kippers for breakfast every day for a couple of years when we were living in the UK. I might do kippers with scrambled eggs and fried potatoes tomorrow morning.

If the kippers aren't boneless, if you carefully fold open the fish along the cut along its belly, you can, with a tine of your fork, remove the whole spine along with the dorsal artery in one go. Or you can just eat the vertebrae for the extra calcium.

It's like plain jello GON, except chewier! Vavavroom, I assumed you meant beef as you mentioned kosher.

The salt I used in the stew was kosher. You gotta remember I order pork kebobs at halal eateries just to see their reaction. They often yell "Aikhruj! at me. I think it's a blessing of some sort. I really do love Middle Eastern food.

Never ate snouts that I know of, but have probably been in some lunch meats.

I love hearts, tongues and testicles though. ;)

But I'm from rural Iowa. We used to go snapping turtle hunting and have a feed every year, along with side dishes and a keg of beer.
Had a pond full of turtles. Take a boat out, with a stringer of blue gills as an attractant. See a turtle head pop up and blow it off with my Winchester 94 in 30-30. Dip out with a net and throw in the boat. Fun times with 15 turtles minus the heads, crawling around the boat. Then you had to go home and clean all of them.

I use the term "snouts" as a stand-in for any processed meat product. I used to call it "snouts and hooves" but people were not overly fond of me saying that. I don't know if there are snouts in Miller's uncured sausages. I don't really want to know. As far as organs go, I don't mind eating liver. I have eaten chicken hearts. I'll leave brains, kidneys, intestines, and reproductive organs to more daring culinarians.
