They used everything that could be eaten. We also caught trout in the summer and fall and froze what couldn't be eaten immediately.<br />I recall my 2nd grade class discussing odd things to eat one time and my saying that I liked to eat the eggs from a trout. Someone said "ewww" of course, and someone else said, "what does it taste like?" The only thing I could think of to compare the taste to was calf brains! I'm lucky I had any friends after that...gocrazywithmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04063066209331964997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-223393909446478851.post-63421790626721028322010-06-14T14:49:17.085-07:002010-06-14T14:49:17.085-07:00I've always been a liver fan, especially chick...I've always been a liver fan, especially chicken livers. When I was little (age 3), my parents divorced and my mom went back to work as an accountant. Funds apparently got real tight until she got her first paycheck, so there was one week where all we had was wieners every night. She said that I got sick of them and wouldn't eat them, and the funny thing is that one of my first memories is of spitting a mouthful of hotdog in the toilet! But I wasn't smart enough to flush it down, and when my mom asked me if I ate it, I lied and said yes. But she checked the toilet and there was the hotdog! Oops! We used to have hotdogs fried with potatoes, too. And yes, I LOVE hot dogs as an adult. Especially Dodger Dogs at Dodger Stadium, LOL!! <br /><br />As for getting even, what does he truly hate to eat? I'd find a way to get his least favorite ingredient into a dish and make it so scrumptious that he doesn't even know it's there. Until you tell him later, of course!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05765115495938525371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-223393909446478851.post-21259270435202816712010-06-14T04:20:45.421-07:002010-06-14T04:20:45.421-07:00Oh, how funny!

Dad would go down to the river and catch net fulls, and she would clean them up, bread and fry them by the bucket loads! Delicious!<br />I remember the lean days well, as there were 7 mouths to feed. Thursday dinners were sparse, one of my favorites was when Mom would slice up bologna and fry in with canned tomatoes and onions, sometimes green pepper. I love it. Macaroni and tomatoes was another cheap but good filler.<br />To get back, do a "chub" fry, and let him see what he's been missing!Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03748075364992710186noreply@blogger.com
