Whenever the fish came out in a banquet, I made sure to give the head to the most senior manager at the table. They would just suck everything out of it, eyeballs included.

All I could think of is what toxic crap that fish had been eating in the sea. That's where they came from, since almost nothing could live in the rivers. I would still eat a small portion of the fish, but not ravage it like these other people.

I always hit the vegetables and rice hard, as they were the most palatable things at a banquet for me.

I think the fish you ate were farm raised. They weren't doing that back when I used to eat during the days because there was no way to avoid it. I think that banquet stuff stopped for me in the mid 90's as I had to spend less time with state owned enterprises who wasted everyone's time and more time with private companies who were more time conscious.

When I was in the Pacific, I thought they were crazy for eating some of the stuff they ate but learned to love a lot of it. I have fond memories of catching rock crabs between volleyball matches and eating them raw. We would sometimes pay some kid to go catch us an octopus to eat after our next game. My 2-man partner's wife was a local and would bring us kelaguen to keep our energy up and quench our thirst.
I would just try stuff when traveling and not ask what I was eating until I was done and had already decided if I liked it. Of course seeing them dropping off puppies to the restaurants in Korea was unsettling.
