Tidbits about Seafood

What do you think of when you think seafood? Do you think of Lobster, shrimp, crab, clams, and fish – any kind of fish or just ocean fish? Do you think of seaweed or kelp, which is also seafood? Is fresh water fish seafood? Have you ever thought about this? I, personally, think that seafood must be from the ocean.

Seafood tastes great, if you like seafood. I love shrimp and crab the most. I am not as fond of lobster. Clams can be good but they can also be tough and hard to swallow. I have never tried oysters or shark. What is your favorite?

Seafood has health benefits. Shrimp is an example of great low-fat high protein source. Some ocean fish, such as herring, mackerel, and sardines supply Omega 3 fatty acids, which can stimulate blood circulation and reduce certain types of negative cholesterol in the blood. Seafood is great addition to any weight-reducing plan.

There are so many ways to prepare seafood. Grilling is great, especially to keep the fat content done. Sometimes, though, a piece of fish in a rich sauce is just to die for. My mom makes the best bluefish, with just a strip of mustard along the top.
