Hey peeps

Hope alls good wid you all? Here's a little dilemma of mine which has been with me for as long as I can remember.  Being raised in a Caribbean household, especially as my parents are Jamaican, I am not ashamed to say I have a love for the national dish.

I remember my Mum telling me, 'If you ever was to see that fish head, you would neva eat it, it so ugly they have to cut its head off at sea'.  OK, this info would be filed in my subconscious like many of Mums folktales and sayings, for later retrieval.

Got this email from a friend which took me back to the above conversation, and I'm sharing these interesting pics wid you all.

I also came across this related artical from the Jamaica Gleaner:In search of the saltfish head.
 

Is this the fish we're eating?
Would you let rumour put you off eating what you like?
 

'What don't kill you fatten and make you stronger' another Mummy saying.
