    A lot of people seem to balk at canned sardines. Maybe it’s the crunch of biting into the spine that puts people off…

      I vividly remember my horror when first totally unexpectedly encountering anchovis.

      Ordered a pizza during a school trip to Norther Italy.
      Read the “anchovis” on the description, but confused it with “artichoke”, which I like.

      Instantly spit out the fish part, dissected the pizza and confronted the waiter with the fact that there were “dead fish complete with bones” on my pizza.

      I guess this is one of the stories the waiter still tells, when asked about the most crazy customers… ;-)

        Well they’re harder to keep on the pizza when they’re alive!
