Whales for Sale USA
Two humpback whales befuddled by the backwash of mobile phones in San Francisco Bay swam 70 miles up the Sacramento River. Oceanologists have failed to seduce the errant sea mammals to the open sea with love sirens from other whales. They remain stranded upriver.
Japanese researchers have offered to lend California marine biologists a sonar signature of their whaling ships in hopes that the whales will flee the estuary in terror. The Bush administration has responded to an entreaty from a Sapphoro fish market, which would purchase the pair for scientific culinary purposes should the whales die.
“Maybe this gesture will ease the entrance of US beef into the Japanese market,” one FDA official mused at a Georgetown sushi restaurant.
Back in the 1960s a Haymarket fish market served whale sanwiches to Bostonians. My friend and I tried one. Like beef only much much better.
My grand-aunt said cheaper slabs were very blubbery and full of fat.
Never had it again for moral reason.
Too much like eating a fat person I suppose.
Good thing whale meat has no aphrodisiacial properties or else the Chinese would have sucked the bone marrow out of the last whale decades ago.
Lip-smacking good.
