  • If mermaids were real would we eat them?

    Just been watching a cartoon with the little one, where a hungry hyena thing wants to eat a mermaid, got my thinking.

    You’d more than likely piss in their sinks.

    Only the bottom half. I like a bit of tuna but I ain’t no cannibal.

    If we got good at the amputation we could get dinner and a dinner guest all from the same shop. Mermaids always seem like charming company.

    How do they reproduce?

    I imagine they are like lizards and when they lose their tail it regrows a body and the body regrows a tail

    So buy a man a mermaid and you’ll feed him forever. Actually maybe we should farm lizard tails.

    What would you do with the top half?

    No, I wouldn’t.

    Just like I wouldn’t eat any sea mammals.

    Invite her to stay for dinner. it would have to be a surf and turf menu ‘cos I’m going to assume my guest isn’t a cannibal either. Conversation could be a bit tense what with me eating her tail but you never know until you try it.

    She might taste a bit fishy.

    I suppose that it would be classified as a marine mammal which tend to be a bit divisive,re nomming them.

    We were on a beach in Wales when we spotted a pod of dolphins having a bit of ‘sport’ with a small porpoise, which, in the end, washed up near to us, battered and quite dead.
    My dad was quite disgusted with me, then a marine biologist, for suggesting we get the barbecue out and have a sample.

    I mean, when else would you get a chance to try one totally guilt free?

    So for me, it depends on how one acquires said mythological fish-lady.

    You cruel beasts. The poor mermaid!

    She’ll likely end up in a shelter for battered women.

    Doesn’t have quite the same ring to it 🙂

    Battered? Nooo. A nice Tom Yum broth.

    So general thinking is that if one washed up dead on the beach that you had seen swimming shortly before hand it would be acceptable to cook her there and then.

    Free range may be more acceptable than farmed.

    Do you think the dolphins accidentally caused the death of the poor wee creature, or did they do it on….

    Whenever I’m unable to control my desire to hunt for a mermaid and cook it’s firm plump body over an open fire on a balmy summer’s evening, I spend some time looking at this serene photograph of Jan Leeming which helps me to find peace and satisfaction in the life that I already have

    You want to be more wary of the mermaid eating you!

    Not since the BBC took down the recipe.

    When you get a mermaid out of the water, do you see their flaps, and if so, how big are their flaps?

    Here are the flaps of a small tuna as a starting point:

    I reckon big fishy flaps are guaranteed!!

    If it were a Darryl Hannah type mermaid, I’d start nibbling at her caudal penduncal, work my way up to her anal fin and finish right up to her pectorals

    I have quizzed many today on this topic.

    Responses range from – No that is disgusting, they can think so no, if they were dangerous I would, no…but if it was cooked in front of me I might be tempted.

    my favourite – would they smell of fish?

    I’ve eaten penguin; mermaid causes me no issues.

    Edit – tasted bloody horrible, mind.

    I’ve never been a fan, though my other half goes crazy for the mint ones.

    I’d be fine with eating mermaid, though I might find it a bit off putting if served whole.
