Fun Facts About Fish - If you keep a goldfish in the dark room, it will eventually turn white.
Fish don't have ears. They hear or feel vibrations along the lateral line of their bodies. Fish that live more than 800 meters below the ocean surface don't have eyes.
A jellyfish is 95% water. One type of jellyfish has tentacles that can grow up to 100 feet long.
The squid and the octopus each have 2 gills, 2 kidneys, and 3 hearts. Isn't the sea slug clever! It really has no defenses of its own, so it borrows weapons from other creatures. For example, it actually manages to swallow the jellyfish's sting cells, which then find their way to the sea slug's skin. Once there the slug uses them as if they were its own. (Compliments of AlphaArs) Seals seldom sleep. In fact they have been known to swim continuously for eight months and travel 10,000 kilometers. (Submitted by Bubba) Some sharks have a bad attitude even before they're born. While examining a pregnant sand tiger shark, scientist Stewart Springer was bitten by its embryo. (Submitted by SandyD)
During a lifetime a tiger shark will produce, use and then shed some 24,000 teeth.(

| | Here is an usual use for hot pepper - In 1983, New York Transit officials dusted ground hot pepper on subway token slots to prevent rambunctious teenagers from sucking tokens out of the turnstiles.
What about parsley? While the taste of parsley is very mild, its peculiar smell is strong. When chewed after a meal, it can neutralize the odors given to the breath by onions, garlic and other hardy delicacies.

I came up with this recipe a little less that 2 years ago. I've been in Wisconsin and when you want hot sausage, ya gotta have it... | | Chayote (Sechium edule), also known as: custard marrow, christophene (France, Caribbean), chouchoute (Madagascar, Polynesia), brione (France, West Indies), vegetable pear, cho-cho, soussous, chuchu, choko, pipinella, xuxu, mirliton (southern U.S.), mango squash, and huisquil. For all these exotic names, this is simply a subtropical member of the squash family, eaten as a vegetable. It is a pear shaped fruit, has a single seed and a taste similar to zucchini. The young root tubers are also eaten. Chayote is native to Mexico and Central America and was a popular vegetable with the Mayas and Aztecs. It's cultivation has spread all over the world, including Algeria, Madagascar, Polynesia, southern U.S., China, Indonesia, New Zealand and Australia and Acadiana.

| | From the US Tuna Foundation: Canned tuna is the second most popular seafood product in the U.S. after shrimp. (Of course if you are Cajun, crawfish may tie with shrimp.) In the U.S., Americans eat about one billion pounds of canned or pouched tuna a year. Only coffee and sugar exceed canned tuna in sales per foot of shelf space in the grocery store. (Cajuns love their coffee - Community Coffee, Mellow Joy, Seaport among others). Surveys find that 88 percent of all American households have enjoyed canned tuna. In fact, almost half of all households serve canned tuna monthly and 17 percent serve canned tuna at least once a week. Examining how Americans use canned tuna, research finds that about one in four consumers, 23 percent, serve tuna once or more a week. Another four in ten consumers, 39 percent, serve canned tuna two to three times a month, while 29 percent serve it once a month and 10 percent serve canned tuna about every three months. Although most Americans enjoy canned tuna, the largest households serve it the most. This recipe is a great and flavorful way to serve tuna fish.
