hmmm thanks for that...... I have a Canadian friend (Scromboid artist extrodinaire, actually) who is driven crazy by the fact that Americans insist on saying "fish" after the word Tuna"'.....

      as if it might be confused with Tuna chicken   or   Tuna  beef......


she also points out that we never end another fish food with the word "fish"... like haddock fish or trout fish or salmon fish, etc....


just one of those odd things that make you wonder where that little trailing word became common place in the language....


Any way, now it bothers me..... at least I have to think about it all whenever I hear it.....
