Cheek of the Sea

Who you callin' a chowderhead, sucka?

The cheek meat was transcendent...Each person should get at least one cheek.

Around here the cheeks never make it to the table. The cook eats them right off the grill!!

Iv heard the cheeks is the best part!

Doesn't get much better than salmon cheeks.

Cheeks have been the "captain's cut" around here for a looooooooooooong time.

20 seconds in the microwave. A friend showed me em a few years ago... taste like salty scallops. Thinking its time they start breeding salmon with bigger cheeks. :backlaugh:

- The Internet on salmon cheek meat.

Scene: the fish counter of a Hannaford supermarket, in the middle of whose busy line of customers sits a small boat with a gently putting outboard motor, tended by its sole passenger, a fiftyish fat man with a van Dyke and a greasy mouth, reeling in a ten-pound cardboard box of frozen salmon heads from the fishmongers' countertop as frightened housewives and retirees drop their line tickets and scatter to either side.

Announcer: D.S.Lahti for Scott's Spreadable Salmon Cheeks:

DSL.: Hi - I'm D.S. Lahti, blogger and little-noted game hunter - er, noted little-game hunter: you may have seen me on Safari, or perhaps on Chrome or Firefox. And if you're like me, you're probably committed - to finding only the meatiest salmon cheeks on the market, cooking them soft in vinegar water, and then spreading them, if perhaps redundantly in a sense, all over split hot buns (holds up tray of Bulkie rolls) with your butter knife. But until now, you haven't been able to find a really decent cheek spread that you can really sink it - your knife - into.

That's why the good fishermen at Scott's have opened up their bulging raincoats to reveal (holds up small cream-cheese tub with a snapshot of the 225-pound flound-, er, founder) - you guessed it - new Scott's Spreadable Salmon Cheeks: made from only the cheapest Atlantic-caught, Hannaford-packed frozen salmon heads, pot-boiled, vinegar-softened, and chockablock with fatty acids from Alpha 2 to Omega 6 - the patented "2 to 6" nutrient range that's a Scott's byword, straight up just the way Mom and Grandma used to take 'em. Stirred into fresh creamy Scott's Homemade Greek - the best yogurt in the world since June 2012 - and seasoned with ripest chives, scallions, shallots, garlic, dill, lemon juice, cilantro, peanut butter, essential oils, bacon grease, curry powder, and anchovies, just the way the legendary chefs of North Berwick, Scott'sland, developed over hundreds of their patented stoveside blog posts. Now there's no excuse not to "spread 'em fore ya et 'em" ... Scott's Spreadable Salmon Cheeks - Have You Spread Your Cheeks Today?™
