I went to Applebees for lunch yesterday with a coworker. There are
lots of low-carb adaptable items on the menu that I usually order.
But I decided to try something different and ordered the
beer-battered fish and chips (sans the "chips) So they brought the
fish, I picked off the batter coating and ...

YUCKKKKKKK! It was terrible! It had an odd "sharp" taste, almost
vinegary. I had my lunch companion taste it (my taste buds are
changed by 2 years + of low carb) and she said that it tasted as if
they soaked the fish in beer and didn't cook it all out. I'm not a
complainer -- live and learn is my policy -- so I asked for a doggy
bag and stuck it in a fridge at work until evening, thinking my cat
Yoda would love to have some fish fillets for dinner.

I knew Yoda was hungry because it was evening and he hadn't eaten
since morning. I crumbled two large fish fillets into his kitty dish
, all the while he was winding in and out around my feet meowing for
his dinner. I set it down for him and ...

First he sniffed it, then looked up at me. He sniffed it again,
looked up at me again. For a minute I thought he couldn't believe
his good fortune. But he sniffed the fish again, and then started
pawing and clawing like mad at the floor around it. He turned around
with his butt towards the fish and clawed at the floor with his hind
feet. Then I realized he was trying to BURY it! LMAO!!!! I laughed
so hard I was in tears. Yoda shared my opinion that Applebee's
beer-battered fish belonged in his litterbox, not in a dinner dish!
hee hee hee!

p.s. here's a link to Yoda's picture.
