Fact be instructed, fish is all the time low on my record of dinner decisions. Someplace simply above calves liver. I really like shellfish, although. I’ll wolf down fried clams, shrimp risotto, and seared scallops any day of the week. And I’ll bravely eat oysters and mussels in months with out an “r” of their names. Previous folks knowledge be damned.
Each time The One suggests fish for dinner, my response is all the time the identical: “Blech.” It takes some mighty artistic psychological gymnastics on his half (and a few fairly hard-assed negotiation about who’ll do the dishes) to get me to the desk.
The bizarre factor is, as soon as I truly sit down and eat fish, I prefer it. I actually do. So, technically, I’m not fish averse. I simply have anticipatory aversion about the potential for having aversion to fish for dinner…. God, I’ve had an excessive amount of remedy.
