Oppose total americanization: say "Sushi" instead of "Spam"!

At recent times I get too much sushi related junk-emails. I think that we must not use American word cause Hornel food inc. already stopped mass mailing. Say "Sushi" instead!

Your translator thought that "mail" was the verb.

E-posten happens to be a valid word too; it's the definite form "the email".

Fish fingers are fine as they are usually cod.

Fishcakes are the usual nasty bastards as they are reconstituted fish bits from all the crappy fish that nobody likes. Plus they are usually greyish-pink and taste like soggy cardboard.

I doubt there's a lot of cod in a fishfinger, usually it's something a lot cheaper. (don't how it's called in English).
Some more expensive brands may use (mainly) cod, but not many, don't forget that salmon is about halve the price of cod.
