Guest guest Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 You use the whole thing (including head). Amy NT Fish Stock Do you use the insides of the fish, or, more to the point, what is a carcass? First time as a nonvegetarian adult . Thank you!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 @@@@@@@@@ Do you use the insides of the fish, or, more to the point, what is a carcass? First time as a nonvegetarian adult . Thank you! Sincerely, Michele @@@@@@@@@ I wouldn't use the insides of the fish. What I do is carefully (this requires practice) peel off the delicate, thin outermost layer of the skin and use that, throwing away the meat, bones, etc. However, you can eat the eyeballs. I hope that helps. " What is a carcass? " is a very deep philosophical question I will have to ponder for a few months before being able to offer a reply with any confidence.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 So you don't use the bones? I thought that was a given. Very confusing, all this animal product stuff. LOL, is the carcass the bones w/adhering bits of flesh, nothing else, or does it include the organs and flesh? My kid wanted me to snip the fish's eyes with scissors tonight. He was like, " Do it, now, I like to cut the eyes. " He's not even 3 yet. He's freaking me out. thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Hi Michele, It was joke! When it comes to eating animals, I think the only rule we need is to either put it right in your mouth or put it in the stockpot. Everything else is art. Those are auspicious utterances for your son. I predict he'll be a poet. Mike SE Pennsylvania > So you don't use the bones? I thought that was a given. Very confusing, all > this animal product stuff.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Kids are like little scientists. Get him a dead fish and let him experiment. What a great way to learn about things.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Hey, Mike, no fair!!! I walked right into that one. Right over my head. Rereading now, it is very funny. And yes, is quite poetic in his own little bluntly graphic way. LOL. Thanks for the laugh!

They say scientists usually hit their creative peaks in their mid-20s or so, but maybe it's way earlier... Wait, did you mean the kid does the learning? I thought you meant you have the kid do all the dirty work and then get all the knowledge for yourself... Mike SE Pennsylvania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 >Kids are like little scientists. Get him a dead fish and let him experiment. What a great way to learn about things. >Amy Waters I don't usually admit it, but I got my start on biology when my Mom had me do the fish cleaning. I used to take apart the guts and try to figure out what the parts were. Took apart eyes too ... fish lenses are really amazing. Fortunately she had taken apart cadavers in nursing training, so she didn't get grossed out. My sister did though. I think it is sad when a kid gets to high school and can't stand the thought of dissecting a frog .. how will you ever learn what body parts ARE? BTW the " Invisible man " and " woman " models are great for kids. We take them apart and I point out all the parts ... comes with a little baby too, so the woman can be preggers or not. The butcher I got my steer from mentioned one of his " clients " is a biology professor ... he takes a whole pig to class, and " dissects " it organ by organ in front of the class. Now that is cool ... you understand digestion etc. a lot better if you actually SEE the organs involved. -- Heidi > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 I can see it now. Little smelts with shrimp heads laying on tables and all hooked up with wires. Then lightening strikes. ZZZAAAPPP! And they all get up and run around. Hey, what was that kids last name again. something? LOL Amy Re: NT Fish Stock > Kids are like little scientists.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 Yeah! And none of that horrible smell. I enjoyed dissection but the smell of formaldehyde always made me sick.
