Just ate a greenie! Didn't filet as well as a I hoped because it was still a little frozen inside.

It was actually pretty good. Some olive oil, lemon pepper and fresh basil and it was actually quite yummy! Definitely saving bait from now on lol.

Whether you eat macs or sardines is strictly cultural.

It has absolutely nothing to do with taste.

We have been "trained" that it is a bait fish, many places think otherwise.

We don't eat horse meat in the U.S. because we were "trained". If you ever had smoked horse sausage links, to die for.

Beef is cool, right? Not to the 930 billion Indians.

So, keep your mind open.

Carp, now that is some good eats!

The tongue is excellent when eaten raw. Had them in Japan.

I'm all for trying different kind of food. Even had fried cricket once. Let's just say it tasted better than they look. But, raw horse tongue?!?! I guess that's the closest thing to french kissing a horse?

Obviously sardines are commonly smoked and canned in oil or tommato sauce and I eat them with crackers all the time and anchovie is great on pizza. Not for everyone but I like it. The bones on the small "bait fish" are so brittle when cooked the just crumble

Pretty damn close!

But tongue is actually one of the best parts on bodies of some animals. Pork tongue, cow, horse... All good. Great balance of fat and muscles.
