Scallops are pricey these days yet in the past I never considered them anything special and I still don't. When I was a young kid the fish mongers in Brooklyn would include a couple three pounds of fresh scallops with the $5 fish order for free, same with jumbo shrimp. In the '40s-'50s mostly poor folk ate seafood because it was plentiful, didn't require feeding and tending to like beef and pork... at 8 years old I could barely lift the bag with $5 worth of fresh fish and carry it the one block home... thinking back it was like 3-4 pounds each of cod, flounder, and halibut, plus the free shrimp and/or scallops, and a couple free lemons too. Back then fin fish was considered expensive as it cost like 29˘/lb; scaled, cleaned, filleted/steaks. Fresh water fish cost a few pennies more, and was purchased for holiday meals. like Easter and Christmas... Great Lakes whitefish was popular for holiday brunch. I can remember when the best King Oscar sardines cost 19˘ a tin. Tins of Campbell's soup cost 9˘. I know, wages were much less, yet recourceful folk worked extra jobs and lived quite well. Since ten years old I worked all kinds of jobs and earned good money, I never flipped a burger. At ten years old I earned more money in a day sanding and painting wrought iron railings than an MD earned making $3 house calls. Today's young folk are in debt and living in their parent's basements because they're deathly ascared of dirty hands, calluses, and perspiration. Buncha candy assed snowflakes... will always be worthless *******s. Anyone who owes a student loan is a WORTHLESS *******. |
