Eating Fish? - Aquarium Advice

sugarloves · 06-17-2004, 02:18 AM

I dont know about you guys, but Im quite attatched to my aquarium fish. Sometimes, when having dinner, I find it difficult to eat fish like salmon or trout. Haha. I was wondering how many of you think twice about eating fish now that you have aquariums.

I don't really have a problem eating fish, but I now have more trouble catching and cleaning them. It did not used to bother me so much, but now I don't go fishing like I used to.

I really only eat salmon and tuna...but yeah, I do feel bad, and always have because I have always loved fish and the ocean...

There was a thread about this a while back...

I like fish. Especially when the are stuffed with deviled crab. I don't feel the least bit bad about eating fish. Just like my fish don't feel bad about eating fish (read the ingredients on your flakes). Is that Elton John I hear singing "circle of life"?

I'm not going to look at my tank and start salivating though.

From Circle of Iron (a movie taking place in ancient China)

master: A fish saved my life once.

student: Really? How did he do that?

master: I ate him.

I don't like eating fish because they taste fishy. That sounds odd--they are fish, they should taste like fish--I just don't like it.

I went to the Aquarium resturant a few weeks ago. Its this GIANT tank filled with all sorts of sea life with tables circling it to watch the fish as you eat dinner. I felt very odd eating fish. Its like having a BBQ in a barn or something. But other than that I like fish. I've liked raw oysters ever since I was 10 or so... talk about the weird looks I get hehe. Oysters aren't "fish" but you get my point.. or do i even have a point?

I usually have nigiri sushi for lunch on Fridays. It's become somewhat of a tradition where I work. Seems weird that so many people don't like to eat fish. They are really good for you...

it doesnt matter how good for you it is if you can't keep it down when you eat it!
