Fish Eyes, Fish Brains, Blood Pancakes, and now...

Dried Salty Guppies from Japan.

If you know me, I grew up sucking on fish eyes and eating fish brains. I couldn't eat blood pancakes fast enough to satisfy my appetite, although liver casserole was never my favorite (my sister ate and still eats raw liver and loves it). Since living in the U.S. I haven't had any of my old favorites as my entrees, which makes me quite sad. Of course there is always pickled herring that I can purchase from IKEA, but how much can one eat and not get sick of them. I need variety, people, variety!

Everything changed yesterday when Rod came home from his trip to the Philippines and Japan.

He brought me, among other things, a bag of dried salty guppies. Guppies, as you can see from the picture, are tiny silver fish that have been dried and salted.

Today is going to be a great and yummy snack day for me. I think my co-workers are going to barf if they walk into my office.

Thanks Rod, you are the greatest!
