You shall have a fishy ...

Not all of Asda is dedicated to junk; they have a small but well-stocked fish counter with everything from fresh sea bass to Manx kippers:



We bought some Atlantic cod, because I wanted to make my new favorite dish of roast cod with baby potatoes, olives and cherry tomatoes (courtesy, I admit to my shame, of Martha Stewart).

And instead of wrapping the fish in paper, as they do in WholeFoods, the fishcounterman enveloped it in a sheet of foil-coated paper and heat-sealed it into a package.



It's leak-proof, odor-proof, and keeps the fish cooler longer. You can also throw it straight into the freezer.

Do these exist in the US? Or is it just a European thing?

Anyway, just wanted to make it clear that England has some healthy food.



(Ignore that.)



(Ignore that, too.)
