Meat or fish?

When I lived in Massachusetts and Maine, I ate fresh fish all the time. Fresh fish doesn't smell the way leftovers or old fish do. When I moved to Tucson Arizona, I didn't eat fish, other than canned tuna, for 25 years because you couldn't GET fresh fish-- it always smelled. now I live in Washington state, and I go fishing 3 times a week and eat a lot of flounder and dogfish-- and they never smell when they're fresh. I just make sure I don't have leftovers, and I take out the trash after dinner. I don't know if it's just my nose, but shellfish like crab and clams seem to smell a lot more when you cook them than actual fish do, and the smell stays in the house. It really annoys me, so I try not to cook them unless I have the doors and windows open. And I really make sure there are no leftovers, because once the refrigerator smells like fish, the smell just doesn't seem to go away! I have also noticed that some fish smell stronger than others when you cook them anyway, like dogfish. Most sharks have a strong smell, even if you don't kill them until dinner time.

I like both meat and fish. Now I`m eating more fish and chicken and less red meat though. I not only like fish, but I also love seafood and some of the algae that are in our coasts. I live in a long country with a whole long side bathed by the Pacific Ocean, so fish is part of my life. I like it raw, cooked, steamed, fried and baked. YUMMY!!!

Oh I love fish. What I hate is pork. I am not a Muslim but certainly I don't eat and hate just the mere smell of pork. But fish I love especially milkfish and salmon which are very rich in omega-3 fatty acid. I can't relate to those who don't eat fish because if given a choice between fish and meat, I surely would choose fish.

Meat or Fish? Despite the rotten smell of them, without any doubts, i pick fish more than meat. i choose fish because not only fish is the best, top-of-the-line source of nutrients, Protein, Vitamin B-12 and iron, it also helps you reduce the risk of having high blood pressure by eating fish oils from fatty fishes. besides, there are several variety of fish meals that you will crave for its smell.

yes after reading your discussion it reminds me of my grandmother who just don't like the smell of meat and fish.she was pure veg.if we served anyone who was near her she will start feeling like vomiting so we have to keep it away from her.but she does not make any limitations on us that we will not eat meat or fish. normally i don't like the smell coming out from the fish when it is not cooked but normally when it is cooked i love the taste of it. anyway in which parts of the world you have visited?

i love fish and they are deliciuos to me,they have more protein and less fat,i think they are more health that meat. i do met some people that dont eat fish.and there is some people who are hypersensitive to seafood,it is a better choice for them to eat more meat

Well I know that fish is so good for you but at the same time I don't like it as much as turkey or chicken. I do try to eat it every once in awhile as a substitute from the normal meat dishes that I have, I do hate the smell that lingers with fish though.

i eat fish... well any seafood that is. well you just need to know how to cook it with out the smell. there are fish that doesn't have a strong smell. and you can minimize the smell too. lemon grass is a way to reduce some smell for soups. i think lemons helps too.

During my childhood what we usually eat were fishes and vegetables. We seldom ate meat at that time. As a child, I was choosy and I just have the soup rather than eat the fish and vegetables. But when I get older, I already eat fish and vegetables because these are what the doctor told me because of my illness. So fish is much better than meat.

yeah I also know some people who don't like the smell of fish. I used to not like but now I am okay since I have to cook it and all. Here in Goa there is like no meal without fish. Every one eats fish curry rice for lunch here. It is traditional. When i came here for the first time in 2010, I did not like the Goan food, but now I am used to it and I have learnt how to make it too. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Oh ! I love fishs.It is not only delicous, but if you know how to do, it also give a very aromatic smell and attract more. Also, fishs contain Omega-3 helps prevent aging ( very suitable for women ^^ )
