ABSTRACT

We constantly hear in England the cry “Eat more fish!” and spasmodically some official body seems to awake to the situation. Recently they stated in a report that “fish as presented to the consumer is not sufficiently attractive to be given a permanent position as a principal item in the menu,” and that “it is essential to educate the consumers to the dietetic value of good fresh fish, and at the same time ensure that supplies of such fish, at prices which will enable it to compete with all classes of meat, are continuously available.”
