I don't even like salty things, and those fishies are DELICIOUS. Especially with any cicchetti or antipasti: give it some bread or some bufalo mozzarella, oil, Oooh, anything! So hungry right now. I have a sardine at home waiting for me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Little balls of nasty salt, they are.
OK, I was going to say that most people (unlike ita) LIKE salt, but then I see that it's not even a pre-req for liking the fishies.
Speaking of salted fish, I have GOT to try the bacalau at the new Brazilian takeout place by my house.
How do you feel about pineapple? Because I'm totally down with anchovies, and if you add pineapple, it's a little slice of heaven. Used to order it from Brewery City Pizza, in fact.
Salt+sugar? Hell yeah!
I'm eating Kahlua cheesecake right now AIFG!
I like sardines when they're big enough that I can extract filets from the bony part, but I do not eat the heads of any sort of animal.
I am with Matt. Bacon has the benefit of not having a face still attached.
Oh, gee thanks Matt. You successfully unearthed my memory of the minnow soup. Ack.
Matt reminds me of my general preference toward food that doesn't look like any sort of living creature. I realize this makes me a bad omnivore, but I much prefer unidentifiable meat.
It's Hippolyte Marshmallow Creme and you put in on graham crackers. Who are you people? (Hippolyte is a now defunct brand name, but you'll still see it in older Southern cookbooks, particularly the church and Junior League sort of cookbooks.) My life has been Fluffless and Fluffernutterless.
I love anchovies. I like sardines. I like tunafish. I'm not much for fish that doesn't come in a can, though.
I'm not even super thrilled with having to carve my meat out of a whole animal, though at least seafood is low enough on the food chain that I don't feel guilty about it, just grossed out by the leavings.
I was so much happier with Chinese food before I learned to spot the mud vein in shellfish.
