Someone hatched a scheme to export it to Japan, but there was too much PCB mixed in with the fat.<BR/><BR/>The Japanese tourists are very pleased that they can get marine mammal sashimi here, I think it makes them less homesick. I prefer making a stew.<BR/><BR/>Hmmm. Hvalsodd?

What about walrus? Is that permitted? <BR/><BR/>Strangely I had a weird conversation recently with a work colleague who comes with me on my flights of fancy rather than attempt to reel me in, as most do, and we had the idea for a 'club your own seal cub' restaurant for dedicated carnivores.
