yesterday afternoon i came into possession of a bag of japanese snack mix which contained, among other things, whole dried anchovies. riding high on the whole "i ate anchovies for the first time and liked it" euphoric wave of the night before, and egged on by a friend, i tried one.
flashback to roughly 11 years ago. i had a bag of these things, bought at the pet store, which i was attempting to feed to the cat. the cat refused to consume even a single crumb.
things i deduced after putting the dried anchovy in my mouth yesterday:
1) always trust the damn cat
2) never buy snack food that is also sold in pet stores
