Sadly, not for @DLHM.

And I refuse to have anything seafood related in her home out of respect

I’m happy to have a meal of vegetables any day/night of the week.

To be fair, @Veggiepatch and I went to a seafood restaurant yesterday and I’m happy for him to eat as much seafood as he likes. Sometimes he has fish & chips at the pub. I have not “prohibited” Veggie to buy fish to cook at our home, but it’s his decision.

I wish I liked fish. I know many fish are quite a healthy dish.

Each to his own. One of my pet hates is pumpkin, and I cannot stand oysters, calamari, mussels, tinned tuna and hate tinned sardines due to their strong smell. There are SOME other seafoods, but I love (green) prawns cooked well and a lot of other fish as well as salmon (only cooked or tinned, not raw). With pumpkin I love pumpkin soup (I actually cut it and cook the soup myself!) but just cannot stand the mushy texture of a piece of pumpkin. So as I said - each to his own.
