And then they say they are sending them to be composted into FERTILIZER????? What the heck?????
Oh, wait, they don't teach American History any more.
One of the stories of Indians helping Pilgrims was "to plant corn, you
dig a hole and drop in a cod (fish, not piece, btw), and then a
seed kernel, cover, etc.
I've seen old (as late as the 1930s, maybe) photos of fertilizer
companies drying fish for processing.
If you check out the ingredients on some plant food, it may list fish.
