Cod liver oil
Just wondering how it would work to actually cook with CLO or fish
oil -- I know not to fry with it because it is so extremely
unsaturated, but how about in a lemony mayonnaise for making tuna
salad? I'm talking about real cod liver oil from Walgreens, not the
watered-down (literally; it's 2/3 water) flavored kind they sell at
Walmart for the same price.
It might be a good way to get vitamin D and preformed vitamin A in
the winter months. (or it might still be nasty.)
I was thinking about it because I'm giving CLO, canned pumpkin, and
ground flaxseed to my dog as "treats" because the vet says vitamin A
and omega-3 fatty acids will fix up his flaky itchy skin. I have to
hide the CLO by stirring it into a bit of stinky catfood or the
remnants of my morning oatmeal because he's decided that it's
medicine and won't eat it if he notices it.
I haven't gotten up the nerve to try a spoonful myself yet. :-P
