Oh God, I just googled 'jellied eels'; no offense to Anglos, but like just why? That looks horrifying.
No faulting for the Pie and mash though (cause I love savory pies), but this is a complete joke.
Also, I'm currently working abroad in the Middle East, and guess what: ooooh noooooo, people have replaced Salam Aleikum with good morning and hey how's it going, and rice and hummus with big macs and fried chicken. I mean I haven't noticed the local population being put out by it but I've really been meaning to convince them that actually they're supposed to be really upset about it because some guy on the internet is throwing a wobbly about it.
I thought the same. Smoked eel is my personal favourite fish dish.
Jellied eels sounds much less appetizing, but at least they use fully grown fish for that. Eating glass eels has always sounded like horrible waste to me.
It's weird that people don't realize glass eels are all immature eels that have yet to reach maturity (then again its likely deliberate suppression by fishing groups to reduce blame for when the species becomes extinct).
