It's not only regional variations but preferences change through time. I have seen eel traps from Victorian times which indicate that in the not too distant past eels must have been eaten in Scotland,whereas now it is almost unheard of for Scots to eat them. Probably the strangest thing I like is a Thai fish sauce called Nam Pla which is made by mixing anchovies and other small fish with salt and leaving them to fester for a couple of months in a barrel and then draining off the juices. I would recommend anyone who likes oriental stir frys to try it as an alternative to Soy sauce,although it's very salty and not to everyone's taste.
