Can We Say Sal?

i made a trip to whole foods yesterday. i needed to make a bank deposit nearby and had been craving some almond butter so decided i'd stop in. i need to be eating more protein. and iron, but anyway...

so i'm walking down the isles of the wonderful but expensivo delight that is whole foods when i came upon some canned tuna and salmon. i thought some canned sal on salad or with crackers sounded kinda good so i picked up a can. i have usually only seen salmon in cans similar to tuna cans, ya know, small. however, there was a can the size of a can of say kidney beans for a similar price so i figured, why not get that one? economy size. i should have read the entire label.

by the time i got back to my apt i had walked about 4 miles; having in my system no more than an apple and a piece of bread. some sally sal sounded pretty good. so i opened the can...and to my HORROR i found spine and skin and oh my goodness i thought i was going to have to give up fish! haha! i proceeded to sift through the can of mushy, spiney, skin meat thinking to myself that the can shoulda said SOMETHING about what i was purchasing. not just ready to serve. HOW WAS THAT READY TO SERVE? eventually, i finished separating all the body parts and had some fish, but with mixed feelings of course.

i really should have read the entire label before this morning because had i, i would have seen this:

in case the blurr is too blurry for ur reading, it says:"this product is made from wild salmon and contains skin and bones which are both nutritious and completely edible." hahahaha. economy size?...shannon u are such a freak.
