I always figured, little sandwich = little fish. I guess not.
I was reading this article, about a fish market in Japan having to ban tourists because they were hugging and licking the fish, and noticed the price tags that some of these fish were selling for.
One sold for ¥9,600,000 (about $107,000). That’s a big fish.
It’s apparently not atypical for a fish to catch over ¥1,000,000 ($11,000).
The picture shows a bunch of fish in a warehouse. Yummy!

I always knew there was a reason I didn’t eat tuna…
Bill: What if you mix the mayonnaise in the can, WITH the tunafish? Or… hold it! Chuck! I got it! Take LIVE tuna fish, and FEED ‘em mayonnaise! Oh this is great.

Bill: Call Starkist!
I have a photo of the hubby with a giant tuna at Tsukiji market in Japan. Instead of getting up at 5am to see the fish auction, I elected to keep my fever-stricken self in bed (on futon?) until a more reasonable hour.
There is not enough $ (or ¥) in the world to get me to go to a place where there are that many giant fish. Dead or alive.
