Salmon fish fingers

[Miss Demeanour]

Forget my rather mild dislike of fish based food products, this is not tainting my point of view in this instance  - but honestly for those people that do actually like eating the most vile food in the world,  what on earth would make them want to eat Salmon Fish Fingers ??? 

I thought the whole point of fish fingers is that they were cheap, crappy food made of scraps (also see nuggets ) - that you could smother in ketchup and get your kids to eat. Thus convincing yourself that they were eating something mildly healthy 

Trying to make them more refined now and upmarket by making 'Salmon Fish Fingers ' is a nonsense.

Does this also mean that they are better for you because they are / or were , part of a Salmon at some point. Though what part is debatable 

Nonsense . Utter, utter tosh

Salmon has a "reputation" for being an expensive and actually rather good for you fish.
When the big push was on to sell fish fingers and every frozen food company jumped on the bandwagon the "best" you could get (ie the most exensive) were claimed to be made of Cod. Cod is now considered an endangered species and thus is even more expensive. Meanwhile salmon (as bought in most shops) is crap farmed fish that is half the price of cod and that is still an inflated price to charge for farmed fish but the perception is that salmon is a good for you fish and "expensive". The fish farming industry has so much of it they have to find a way to use it hence "Salmon Fish Fingers"

Frankly I prefer to eat the trout that I catch myself ~ sometimes smoked, sometimes grilled, sometimes rolled in oatmeal and fried in butter and sometimes turned into fish cakes.

I well understand those who do not like fish tho' I personally like it (a brace of kippers on a Sunday morning goes down very nicely) and I enjoy shell fish too ~ I am lucky that Mrs S#2 is allergic to shellfish so I get to eat her portion too.

Barbecued per chance ??

Anythings a possibility in your household 

[Nick]

And where exactly do you catch these smoked trout?

[Nick]

He uses dynamite to catch them. They come ready smoked

  He uses jasmine tea leaves and a very hot oven.
This year he will be using a smoker he is building in the back garden ~ you want some no doubt when it is up and running.

[Miss Demeanour]

Na - you're alright thanks 

Very kind offer though it was
