Those pregnant fish
I mentioned in a recent post that I don't eat pregnant fish. Well, today, we had pregnant fish for lunch. And because some of the staff are away today on business trips, there was more to go around. I had 3 of these battered whole fish (yep, heads and tails too) filled with their little eggs inside.
I ate with the Year 5 students and they asked me why I wasn't eating the fish. I explained that I don't eat pregnant fish. So one girl decided to show me how much she loves them by biting off the head and crunching away. She smiled while doing so, and showed all these little yellow eggs all around her mouth and on her lips... If she was trying to show how good it tastes, she was going the wrong way about it. All she did was make me want to vomit and confirmed my dislike for pregnant fish.
Hopefully tomorrow's lunch is much more edible.

Japanese kids are good at creating mental barriers between living things and the food they put in their mouth!
I had a bad experience with Sea Squirts the other day...you know those sea urchin things that are like monster pimples and you touch them and water squirts out? The guy at the sushi place recommended it...after being in tears trying to swallow it, the guy told me that only 1 in 20 people like it...
