#Fish: #Herrings Are Good To Eat, Not To Inhale

Herring is a popular dish in Scandinavian countries like Sweden, especially at Easter and Midsummer. In the north they prefer it with a mustard-based dressing, whereas in Stockholm pickled herring is popular. It is an oily fish, high in omega-3 fatty acids, and known to be good for the heart - when you eat it.

Breathing it in is a different matter.

Dr Anna Dahlman-Hoglund discovered from her studies that high exposure to the fish particles caused breathing problems, including asthma.

Today I learned not to inhale herrings. I learned the same lesson with wasabi few years ago.
