Sure it's an aphrodisiac, the truck driver spilt his load.
Truck spills slimy load all over Oregon road – drivers slip in eel slick
It's always The Register's pleasure to remind you that, however bad you think your day is going, someone else has it worse. Today spare a thought for drivers in Oregon after a truck carrying 3,402kg of "slime eels" dropped its load all over Highway 101. Pictures released by the Oregon State Police reveal a slimy scene as …

Re: Inside the M25
Can we put a wall around it and seal it up? That would keep a whole lor of undesirables inside to the benefit of the rest of the country. Perhaps we can coat the walls with Hagfish? The Corybnistas(just one faction of undeirables) won't dare get near it.
Mines the Winter north Atlantic Survival suit. Wearing one is the only way I'd get near hagfish (and the undesirables t.b.h.)

Re: Beware susi eel
> Eel used in sushi is cooked.
As are (almost?) all freshwater fish, though for a different reason: freshwater parasites find us acceptable hosts, too. Don't know why salmon is an exception. Maybe it doesn't spend long enough in fresh water, or maybe just because precautions are taken (flash freezing for 48hrs or whatever; there's no such thing as sushi/sashimi-grade raw fish, just proper processing, btw).

Salmon used in sushi are from Norway. Salmon from the Pacific are considered to be undesirable for sashimi due to parasites and low fat content. Here is an article that tells the tale:

Re: Maybe you should read up on British history??
Are you mixing hagfish with lampreys?
I hope not - my ancestors made a living catching lamprey (and my surname is based on it).
Doubtless for generating a surfeit of, in order to feed to royalty. It's a form of passive protest don'tyouknow..

Re: Bah!
a) Your eastern inscrutable style hid that meaning in your post. Still does in fact. I looked hard and still can't see it. I'll have to take your word for it that your intent was obvious from the context, though I'm not sure where "here" is.
2) Speaking as a fully vaccinated bacon sandwich eater, I have no idea what goes on in health food shops, nor do I care.
&) Your sarcasm gland output has blocked your chakras, flooded your system with thetans and over-ridden your ability to spell "Stevie". Have a mug of tea and a bacon doorstep and it will wear off.

eels
Eel is bloody lovely meat.
The jelly, however, which comes purely from boiling the eel and leaving to cool is repugnant but then i dont like jelly anyway.
One of the finest things i have ever eaten is smoked eel and mustard soup in a little seafood joint in amsterdam called la piscine if my memory serves me correctley.
