Snoek's a fish though?

It was whale.

In those days.

Must be evolution at work...

No, it was called snoek to try to fool us that we weren't eating whale,
allegedly.

Trouble is, people at least in the north pronounced it 'snook', which is
the noise you make when you force air up through your nose to dislodge
snot and it made the product unpopular ...

But it was wartime, most things were rationed and we were hungry. You
wouldn't believe what we ate - unless you admit to being old of course :-)

I see - and no-one would admit to being old enough to witness evolution at
work ;-)
