Seafood

I have been criticized in the past for not liking seafood.  "WHAAAA" they squeal in a high pitched voice when I firmly say I don't want the catfish.  They become angry  "How can you NOT like catfish?"  Hopefully this post will save me from future discussions about what foods I like.

Reason 1:  Taste

I do not find it unreasonable for this to be a key point as to why I don't like fish.  Seeing as food products are generally put into our mouths where our tongues relay complex information to our brains that determine whether we like the flavor of something, I think really personal preference in taste should be the only reason necessary.  Unfortunately this is usually not good enough for the fish consumers and I have to continue to reason number two.


Reason 2: Look at them

Catfish
Salmon
Cod
Are you kidding me?  These things are gross.  The Catfish looks high, the Salmon has a big nose, and the Cod has a slimy face and a big disgusting eye.  Appetizing? No.  Sorry PETA but I'd much rather eat this.


Reason 3: Fish Swim in Shit

It's a fact of life.

Reason 4: The Gorton's Fisherman Looks Like Alec Baldwin

I checked the Gorton's website to do research for this blog and I quickly discovered that the guy looks strangely like Alec Baldwin (at a minimum Steven).

I don't want Alec Baldwin preparing my food.


Those are my reasons.  Let me eat normal things, like bacon.
