Pearls Before Swine
Like casting pearls before swme, early Americans used
to feed caviar to their pigs before learning that the
fish eggs found in the “poor folks’ diet” of sturgeon
were the same delicate roe that could be imported from
Russia. By the mid-1800s, American sturgeon was
beginning to find its place on the gourmet’s menu, and
the roe was being salted and packed as caviar.
Previously, the same tasty morsels were also used as
fish bait for eels and perch, and for common compost.
The gods do not
deduct from man's
allotted span the
hours spent fishing.
ns-' If you’ve had trouble with ants, repel them by planting
tansy around your foundation.
