It's fish. I'm not sure if it is a fish, but the bag contains fish.
It was bought at the fishmongers and it was cheap.

Well, to be fair MWC, it wasn't until I inventoried it that I realised that I HAD that many sausages either!:rotfl:
I take a trip to Ozzie Mills once a month and buy the sausages in bulk. I thought I'd used most of them up but there were some lurking in the bottom.
I was more concerned about the retentive way in which I seem to have organised my freezer.:rotfl:
