MYSNACKFRIDAY

Hehe....a somewhat "unusual" snack here ;-D
It is a raw(!) herring!

(The previous picture is just to give a better sense of the scene).

-When I was in Arnhem in the Netherlands a few years ago, there was a food market in front of the big Eusebius church. One section was a fish section, and there one could buy a snack if one felt a bit hungry.

And what was this lovely snack, one might wonder? -Raw herrings!!
They took a (raw) herring, gutted right in front of you.....and there you go - eat! Mangiare! *Mmwah*!

Really good, actually!
(Albeit quite slimy....you just had to get a firm grip) ;-D

Well.... I wouldn't say I didn't like it, unless I tried it.
Don't look that good, but you just never know...
Might ask for more.... hehehhehe.
