It's a British thing... My Dad's from England and we'd have these for breakfast from time to time. They're salty, oily, fishy, goodness. The only problem is they'll repeat on you throughout the day.
I remember eating an eclair the afternoon after having Kippers for breakfast, I burped and realized that salty, oily fish doesn't mix well with custard and whipped cream. |
Yum... The submarine pulled into Faslane Scotland for, well, a bit of a stay (
) and kippers was one thing we were treated to. Very interesting. I'm not sure how Scottish kippers are, but they were rather tasty.
