So, it's a given that living outside your comfort zone's going
to get you into some interesting stuff... but this weekend Suzi took it way outside MY zone.See, I've never been one for fish stuff... maybe some shellfish, Bill's fried catfish, some crabcakes (oh, and an authentic clam chowder or lobster bisque...hmmm...tasty!), but don't just drop a whole fish on a plate w/ some garnish and expect me to jump up and down. The Filipino folks do the fish thing and Suzi's on board. Cheryl does it up right with stuffing and such, but I've yet to try it.
So, we find out that Cheryl eats the eyes... right out of the head. "It's so easy! Just push one eye through into the other and pop it in your mouth!" Suzi, always up to a culinary challenge, takes fishhead in hand, muscles one eye through... and she's chewing.
"I'm brave! Kinda tastes like the rest of the fish... but I didn't dwell on it too much..."
That's my girl...!

Suzi, I eat fish eyes anytime I eat trout. When I was little and my dad came from his fishing "expedition" and brought a bunch of trout, we had them for supper and it was quite an adventure for me to eat the eyes. And I still eat them!
Your dad
