Ugh... My mother was a believer in cod liver oil. I thought there were few things more vile than cod liver oil and oysters (we had a plentiful and FREE oyster bed in the river, within 15-20 ft of our dinner table), but out came MINT-flavored Cod liver oil!!! My two brothers and I made our mother know how repellent we found the MINT-flavored version, however we were stuck with it until the very last teaspoon. NOTHING went to waste in my house. Not free oysters, not chicken livers (each one saved, frozen, and eventually defrosted for a "special" casserole when Dad was out of town), and certainly not mint-flavored cod liver oil.
