    The maple syrup doesn't sound right to me either.

    Yes, such things are sold in boxes where I live, unfortunately.
    I like salmon barely cooked, so it is moist and flaky. With lemon juice, salt and pepper, olive oil drizzle and a pinch of garlic.
    But maple syrup... dear me, NOOOOO!
    Generally this is smoked/candied salmon, and tastes totally different than if you just cooked salmon yourself and added maple syrup. Give it a try, because it's real good.

    Clopin, I'll just take your word for it.

    I have this distaste about meat/fish and a sweet addition....

    Further, may I ask, if this maple syrup salmon were served, what do folks serve with it?

    When I make salmon, I do it as described above, and serve with steamed crisp asparagus, baked potato and a salad.

    I've only just eaten it by itself. You eat it cold as well. It's not really a meal, it's just a snack people like. Is this a Canadian thing? I thought it was just normal.

    No, we eat it here in New England, too. You can put it on a cracker or good bread or even a bagel. As Clopin says, it's pretty good (on doctor's orders I went back to eating meat this year and haven't much regretted it). But I will speak heresy to my Canadian friends and say that, for my money, the best maple syrup comes from Vermont. Mmmmm-boy! But it on a tuna sandwich and it would still taste good!

    I love having Greek yoghurt with my chips (fries) and love it but have been told it is a weird combination. Better than ketchup and all, for me.

    Admittedly, I love yoghurt. Have it with pasta, too.

    Nothing weird about that. Yoghurt can be used in place of cheese or sour cream in most useS.

    The onions sound edible.

    Bacon and onions make the liver much more appetizing.
    But skip the ketchup, please!

    Ketchup reminds me of a reincarnated tomato that did something awful in its past life.

    Ha! And don't get me wrong -- ketchup has its place in my world (on French fries, grilled cheese sandwiches...)...

    But this past Schrove Tuesday met its worst ever ... Potato Pancakes with Maple Syrup atop??? O no, say it is not so!!! That was completely horrid to fathom... *glargh*

    I'm trying imagine what pancakes made out of potatoes might taste like. I'm beginning to think maybe there is a use for ketchup.
