[Sca-cooks] fish consumption

[Terry Decker]

Fishmongers middens, kitchen middens or latrines?  It occurs to me that the
10-15 centimeter (I believe that is what was meant by the sm) are large
enough to be trash fish from seining or are small enough to be eaten whole.

I'm a little pressed for time, so let me get back with you over the next
couple of days.  This appears to be a fascinating piece of culinary history.
