My father in law caught a shark when he was out fishing…
...but he let it go. I told him he should have kept it and cured the meat, and he just gave a puzzled look and asked why, and I said “who doesn’t love sharkuterie?”.

There should be charcuterie with shark meat — sharkuterie, if you will. The crackers are shaped like fins, the meat is both beautiful and scary, you keep passing it because it must remain moving at all times, and you use a remora to clean the board when you’re done
