Kippers are smoked Mackerel, very tasty, there is a close relation in Arbroath smokies.

Smoked haddock and cod comes in two forms, teh artifical 'smoked' variety usually bright yellow in colour or the proper smoked stuff usually slight yellow/brown hint to it. The latter is fgar superior IMHO, lightly poached on mashed spud witha runny poacked egg on top!

There is a stall that goes to Helmshore Farmers market that does smoked all sorts, prawns/marlin/black pud, you name it they smoke it

The Arbroath Smokie is traditionally a smoked haddock.

I like kippers but its the bones and the stink afterwards that i dont like, and they dont seem to fill me up!

I love the taste of kippers, but those bones really put me off. I haven't eaten a kipper in years.

Yuk.....I can't stand kippers...the smell makes me want to do a big technicolour spit. I once went on hols with hubby and he ordered kippers for breakfast.......I had to ask the waiter to move me to another table on the far side of the dining room...the sight and the smell of them made me heave.
Finnan Haddock is only slightly better....in that it doesn't have its eyes on you.

I do like kippers but yeah the smell, especially if you've microwaved them, lingers for hours.
