Generic bumper sticker:

geriatric bumper sticker
WHATS AN ANCHOIVE?
can't spell, never could
ok spell checked it: anchovy
what is it? I think it's a salty something or another. Tasting a bit like the ocean
Yep, it's a fish. Can't stand 'em.
I thought I'd risk it last year, though. I was in Nice, France and really wanted to try an authentic salade Nicoise. (Love those olives.) It came out to the table topped by these hideous, huge, hairy (!) strips of fish. Uh huh, anchovies. I picked the olives out of the salad, but I couldn't even bring myself to eat a one after looking at those awful things. Sheesh...
Us Okies don't take to fish naturally, you know. We're suspicious.
ROFL! Thanks for that Bumblebeeboogie!
Er - anchovies are a thing best eaten as an addition to a dish, after having disincorporated during the cooking. They add a wonderful flavour, but not if they are still in lumps, in my view. Some people love them, though, all hard and "hairy" (I mean the bones) and coruscating salt.
I believe any woman who tasted like an anchovy would have to have wrapped herself in salt and cured for a long time first!
I must confess that, after having learned a dinky-di method for perfect parallel parking from a driving instructor, it dropped from my memory as soon as I had passed the driving test! And that day, the day of the test, is the day I did my last perfect parallel park. It has been downhill from there.
Many a Deb fella has been known to mumble under his breath when alighting from my car - "It's ok. I can walk to the curb from here." (My women friends, most of whom CAN parallel park perfectly, are kinder.)
Sigh.
Anchovies and green olives--the perfect pizza . . . if you put a little salt on it . . .
