I try not to tell anybody around here when I go down. They always
say: -- "Mobile ! Did you eat a lot of seafood ?" It seems rude
for me to inform them that I don't eat seafood. IMO, the only
thing that seafood is good for is to feed bigger sea creatures. But
we did have some good beef, veggies, pies and cakes at my
sister-in-laws house.

We agree almost entirely on seafood.
I think we agree entirely. I do enjoy some "heavily" battered ocean
perch of even cod that some of the fish places use. Some years
back H. Salt Fish and Chips had a commercial I loved. "I don't like
fish because they taste "fishy"." That has always been my problem.
But the English fish and chips places do good in removing the fishy
taste. So does Captain D's. Captain D's has the best batter in
town. I wish they would simply fry up a few strips of batter and
leave off the fish. Served with a few French fries and hush
puppies, that would be an enjoyable dinner.

Now that you and Rumpel have weighed in, I can say I know of four
people who don't care for seafood, and that includes me. I can eat
battered fish if it doesn't taste fishy, and I definitely agree with
you that fried batter, French fries and hush puppies would be an
enjoyable dinner. Actually, you could leave out the French fries. I
love a good hush puppy.

Oh man, do I feel sorry for you guys. I don't think that I have found a
seafood dish that I don't like ranging from catfish as served in the
south (with hush puppies, coleslaw and iced tea) to our great dungeness
crabs and our magnificent salmon. I loved to go to Lexington Market in
Baltimore to get Chesapeake Bay oysters at the raw bar or a favorite
blue crab place in Glen Burnie when I lived in that area. How about
Maine lobster -- I once lived with some Navy zoomies who would get their
flight hours in by flying up to Maine to get a case or two. We would
cook them up in garbage cans with submersible heaters. Or fresh caught
trout, in a fry pan over a campfire? I have a favorite way of preparing
Dover Sole with roasted pistachios. How about calamari served up on the
pier in Monterey? When I lived in Florida, you could buy shrimp
directly off the boat - big shrimp. The last time that I was in
Florida, we went fishing for snapper and grilled up a bunch that
evening. How about crawfish gumbo in New Orleans. How about tuna
sashimi or california roll sushi? Red or white clam chowder? Lightly
grilled swordfish? I even like tuna sandwiches!

Yum!

I don't think I could force myself to swallow a raw oyster if someone
held a gun to my head. I've never eaten a cooked one. I don't
understand how anyone could eat anything that looked like that. I
will confess that my parents loved the things, and I liked eating the
little bits of cracker meal that Mama dipped them in that had fallen
off in the cooking grease but were guaranteed not to contain any
actual oyster.

I do eat tuna sandwiches with lots of Miracle Whip and lemon juice to
kill the fishy taste.

Mama also made salmon cakes out of canned salmon which I ate as a kid
but my husband, another seafood lover, buys fresh salmon and cooks it
on the George Foreman grill. The smell turns my stomach and now I
can't even eat salmon cakes anymore.

Tuna fish salad and salmon croquettes are the only fish I have ever
eaten with any regularity. Tuna fish salad sandwich (with lots of
salad dressing) and potato chips for lunch. Salmon patties with beans
and mashed potatoes for dinner. .


Oh right, I forgot about Tuna. I do eat that, mixed only
with mayonnaise, cut-up pickles, salt and pepper.

I don't like salmon.
