I've tried some of that stuff - it's rank!

And I agree (3 in one day, mark it on the calendar) that it's not banned in the UK - just banned from being sold in Restaurants due to erm, health reasons?

It reminds me of all the trouble over bombay duck

Aha, it's not duck its Dak and refers to the mail train in which the fish was transported. ;) Contrary to belief, it is not a banned substance in the UK. ;)

----------

Bombay duck was banned in 1997 by the EU but revoked due to campaigning on condition of certain health regulation.  Been to Mumbai many times and you can smell it in the railway stations
