When my kids were very small one of the old men would feed my children little shreds of it from pieces he's taken the bones out of. So my now grown up kids still like it. I never got the taste for that or lox (smoked salmon). NoraAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14820850644240626655noreply@blogger.com
