I am a fishetarian

I belong to a coastal city and that makes fish my staple. I love eating fishes, but that doesn't mean that I will flush down my throat anything that swims in the sea. I am very choosy when it comes to food and so I am with fishes. Mackerels, promfret, clams, silver fish, prawns, sardines, crab, king fish are the fishes that I love eating.

I have been staying away from fish for over 6 months for my mother in law was staying with us and she kind of hates the smell. Now that she is away, we went out to the market to buy some of our favourite fishes to satisfy our taste buds, but unfortunately fishes were not very fresh and were too costly for our pockets.

Monsoons have hit Mangalore terribly and fishermen are advised to stay out of the waters. Government has banned fishing for safety purpose and that means there are no fresh fishes available in the market. The ones that are available are cold stored ones.

But still, the market was super busy and people were buying the cold stored fishes without bothering about the prices. I guess there are some hard core fishetarian out there. I am okay with veggies and pulses too.. surviving ,😪
