Scott: Yeah. Yeah.
Tell me about fish, then?
Scott: Fish are animals that live under the sea and they can’t come out – if they take a breath of air, they might die.
Helen: And fish pee in the water.
Are fish good or bad?
Helen: Good.
Scott: Good and bad. Some fish can be bad and some fish can be good.
Do we eat fish?
Scott: Yes.
What do they taste like?
Scott: Fishy.
Helen: Yucky.
Scott: They all have different tastes.
What’s your favourite kind of fish to eat?
Scott: That ones that are sweet and sugary.
Like what?
Scott: I don’t know what they’re called.
Sweets shaped like fish?
Scott: No, they’re sweet – the fish tastes sweet.
Real fish?
Scott: Yup.
When did you eat them?
Scott: They were yellow when I ate them, but they were a different colour when they didn’t have their skin on. Was it light pink? I once thought I saw… They were eating fish and one liked the eyes and one didn’t. I can’t remember what the animals were. The one that didn’t like the eyes had the one with the eyes eaten off already.
What’s the best fish in the world?
Helen: A salmon.
Scott: The world’s biggest fish. In the library today, one of my friends had a book on whales and there was one of the world’s biggest whales. It was taller than a house and wider than a car.
How long would it take you to eat that?
Scott: To eat that big one, at least five days.
