This looks and feels so British I can't even.
Be careful talking like that. The people of Cornwall would beat the tar out of you for calling their food British.
Cornwall? The county in England? Am I missing something?
The Cornish have their own bizarre nationalist movement
My question is, do you eat the heads or are they just decoration?
Huh, sooo this is a sentence...
The dish traditionally originates from the village of Mousehole in Cornwall and is traditionally eaten during the festival of Tom Bawcock's Eve to celebrate his heroic catch during a very stormy winter.
Tom Bawcock is a legendary character from the village of Mousehole, Cornwall, England. He appears to have been a local fisherman in the 16th century. According to the legend, one winter had been particularly stormy, meaning that none of the fishing boats had been able to leave the harbour. As Christmas approached, the villagers, who relied on fish as their primary source of food, were facing starvation.
Neat
That may be the most British thing I've ever read in my life.
Make it even more British by not pronouncing the h in the name of the village, because why would they say it like it's written. It's pronounced *mauzall, I kid you not.
And they're not even ashamed.
Would you not eat it? I've never had one but I can imagine it tasting great. Am British, obviously :)
I would try it, but would definitely not have an expectation of liking it.
