And no Girl Scouts in Girl Scout cookies!

Every restaurant on that list was, is and has been either Chinese or Mexican

You must not have any Indian restaurants in your area.

[TexasCajun]

..that’s cause those restaurants used something they called wobster.

I dunno. I have seen a lot of buffalo out this way, and not one of ‘em had wings. Mebbe they get clipped when they’re just calves. (It’s hard enough to keep those ornery critters corralled as it is!)

[Smokin' Joe]

I have eaten both, ray (sliced) and scallop. The smaller rays are tasty, the big ones are less so and rubbery.

That reminds me of a Daria episode I saw. Go to 10:51
My Night at Daria's
Doctor - Whoa. That is one hell of a parasite. Now hold on! One, two, three!
Jake - Aah!
Doctor - Here. Look.
Jake - Eww... um, must have gotten it from that damn food-rotting Tupperware...
Doctor - Tupperware? I don't think so. When was the last time you had sushi?
Jake - Last weekend at Tokyo Toby's...
Doctor - Tokyo Toby's? When is the health department going to shut that worm factory down? This is the third anisakid I've seen come out of that place in two months!
Jake - Oh...

An honest Asian restaurant is rare. You never know what that mystery meat really is - beef, rat, dog?

Two favorites:

They was robbed and got robbstah rolls.

A friend of mine went to the fish market in Tokyo- it’s the largest fish market in the world- you’d think it would have a fishy smell but it doesn’t at all. The Japanese know how to handle fish and how to keep the place clean. He said the market smells fresh.

I tried it a while back, and honestluy wouldn’t know the difference. It seems the sauce contributes much more to the taste then whatever animal is used.

[Daffynition]

Fresh fish does not smell. ;)

[kearnyirish2]

Good for them; they probably are much more learned about it as it is such a critical part of their diet. I’ll occasionally eat fish, but sushi (or any other uncooked animal, for that matter) is out of the question.

[GOYAKLA]

Brings to mind the OLDE cookie joke.
“ tastes like p——..
No it, tastes like s-—!
Turn it over.”

[Pelham]

No sushi for me either. I prefer to sear a slab of salmon and douse it with lemon.

[Celtic Conservative]

It’s actually “Welsh rare-bit” which can also refer to a virgin from Cardiff.

Deep-fried, beer-battered cod for me (with chips & tartar sauce)...now I’m hungry.

[Dr. Sivana]

I know that its Welsh Rarebit, but it is often called the other, as it was when served to me. I had wondered how they pureed that poor bunny.

[Celtic Conservative]

Sorry, just couldn’t resist repeating an old Monty Python joke.

The most tasty seafood I ever ate (imho) were steamed blue crab, in Southern Maryland decades ago, followed closely by fried soft crabs. I ate a lot of fresh seafood in those days. Here, I am far too far from salt water to eat much seafood, but the beef is great.

Everyone has favorites, I suppose--or not.

[NormsRevenge]

Just so its not HUgh manatees or Chilean sea bass.. Burrrp.
