I put that in the blog yesterday! Sounds disgusting tho. I read a thing last year sometime about scientists growing sheets of skin from the foreskins of circumscised babies. That wasn't too nice either. But, good use of old foreskins. I guess.

And that jumper - was it actual size?

they use babies foreskins, but the whole 'sheets' thing sounds like a bit of a lie... maybe this is closer to the truth

of going into a shop and asking for meat by dimensions rather than weight - "can I have a 4 by 2 slice of sharkmeat mate" would better fit in the fridge.

It's true, I nicked it off sushism.
D'you eat sharkmeat often?
I had swordfish once - I used some for a photoshoot, and was some left over. I had it in my bag, but then i had to go straight for an interview. I turned up, and the place had a dog, which wouldn't leave me alone. I had to say to my interviewers, "Hello, I'm here for the interview. I smell of fish".
Nice.

toasted some sharkmeat on volcanic hot rocks in a resturant in Iceland, I might have just been me but it smelt and tasted of piss. The Dolphin, penguin and reindeer were fine though, if a bit chewy.

Cartiladginous fishes like sharks dump their urea (the main ingredient in piss) into their tissues. I'm not sure what the metabolic reasons are, but basically they are pissy through and through.
