You know what really confounds them?  I've been known to pull up to the speaker
and ask them what kind of fish is in the sandwich, because my doctor won't let
me eat anything that swims below 10 fathoms.  One time I think that they
actually got out "The Manual."  I was told that it was flounder, or something.

Actually, they use founder.  McDonald's may use styrofoam containers and throw
away 15.7 billion tons of meat a year, but at least they know how to recycle
personnel.

So why can't the fish be from below 10 fathoms?  Would this include fish that
swim at the surface and in the darkness, like tuna or mahi-mahi?  Is the
restriction for ocean fish' can you eat deep-lake catfish?  (Not that you'd
WANT to -- ugh.)

I'm just curious -- allergies fascinate me.
