When I was a kid my dad used to bring home dried smoked fish, usually smoked herring. We would eat it up like beef jerky. My I loved that fish. Thanks for the memories!

One of the things I love most about these awards is that I always find new foodblogs. It's also one of the downsides, of course, since I have no time to be a regular reader, and the knowledge of all these great sites otu there sits in the back of my mind. Sometimes I wake up at night, screaming "DEAR GOD I SHOULD BE READING FOODBLOGS" Then my wife smacks me and I'm okay.

But enough about me, great post and great site.

Thank you for being the only one involved with these awards to have the courage to point out that there is independent food in the middle of America.
