Recent new taste: Old Fisherman brand roasted pike conger. It comes

Bad name. I hesitate to describe the images that
come into my head, visual and olfactory both.

It's not a bad sort... the outside of the can has a little picture of a white-bearded cone-hatted blue-robed sitting man holding a fishing rod
from which dangles a fresh-caught fish... looks quite well-scrubbed, actually... ;) I get another of the brand's offerings, Roast Eel... and

It's been a while since I shopped in a Chinese
market for canned fish - seldom enough in any
kind of market. I don't recall the label as you
describe it, though Swisher had dragged me to
the Green Apple or Red Apple or something, which
had an extensive variety of canned goods including
fishes and corned mutton and similar deliosities.

I've also bought another called (I think) Spicy Roast Eel... the
difference being the amount of capsicum in each... The sauce in the
milder version still has a little kick to it, the other more so... but
not really a lot of difference between them.... both are tasty... :)

Not a big surprise that.

But this isn't fish, it's eel... ;) ok, quibbling... ;) The can itself
is primarily red and gold, and the picture of the Old Fisherman is
rather small and tucked into a corner of the flat side of the can, with
a red and yellow checked background for that corner... I've not seen it
in any regular grocery stores, and not even at all the different Asian
markets around here....

I've also bought another called (I think) Spicy Roast Eel... the
difference being the amount of capsicum in each... The sauce in the
milder version still has a little kick to it, the other more so... but
not really a lot of difference between them.... both are tasty... :)

Which, the not much difference, or the both are tasty....?
