Broken up as if by hand (an alternative fun way of saying shredded)? "Fish cream" does not sound appetizing. I would not be making that with shredded cod.

(I assumed it was an alternative phrase because of the quotation marks but I'm not sure that's their purpose...).

I’m going to start using “picked up” in place of shredded all the time now…

Fish = 10¢
Shipping = 14¢
I'm thinking Upton Sinclair would like to have a word with the folks who are "picking up" this "fish."
