We used to dream of plankton!

When I were a lad, we 'ad it tough.  We'd have to get up at two o'clock in the morning, go down t'mill, work 18 hours a day, come home and all we'd 'ave t'eat was a bowl of plankton.

Cooked?

Aye.

Luxury.

Plankton isn't actually bad - neither by taste nor nutrition. Many ocean sailors employ plankton trawls by obtaining food at the oceans.

It is just strange for those who are not used to eat it or who are told to eat it.

Since fish often live on plankton, and we humans eat fish, this sort of falls into the "cutting out the middleman" category.
