It's a must for a bloody mary. If it weren't for the list of ingredients, you wouldn't know there's fish in it at all.

I know it. Anchovies are in a lot of things you wouldn't think of. Mostly because of Worcestershire sauce. You're right it's part of what makes a bloody mary good. I bet though, If it was a called a tomato cocktail with fish juice.. we would have never tried it to begin with. Haha

Haha, there are many examples of this. "Patagonian Toothfish" was long considered garbage fish until someone decided to call it "Chilean Sea Bass" and now it's all the rage. Large out of state seafood companies are duping people in the lower 48 as well by rebranding Alaska Chum Salmon (Or as it is known in Alaska, Dog Salmon, since it is only good for feeding dogs) by the name "Silverbrite" salmon, which is borderline fraudulent since Coho Salmon (considerably better) are commonly called "Silver Salmon"

There are newfoundlanders who won’t touch the Lobster, even if it’s trapped here. They grew up when no one would touch the stuff, and it was just used as bait. And fishermen don’t eat bait.

We use the the Lee and Perrins bottles not the Heinz ones, they have magical properties.

Lea and Perrins is the only true Worcestershire Sauce. All others are imposters.

Honest, I wrote this before I had read as far as Country Blacksmiths comment and found he beat me to it.

You gotta be smokin' a lot of Halfling Leaf to come up with that one.

Too bad you couldn't use that box of yours to fix that...

I use Thai fish sauce in a lot of cooking; and that's even after I found out how it's made.

Yeah, I really must read the operating manual someday.

The Asians seem to eat that stuff on everything.. so believe it or not you're not in the minority.. I'm not putting that douche in my food, though. Haha

Anyone else eat nuoc mam sauce?
