Poor salmon

  Fun (not fun) fact: farmed salmon meat is gray, so they put coloring agents in their feed to turn it into the color we expect it to be.

  Because that’s the color you turn before you mate

    Still involves the fish dying

      Don’t have to tell him that part, nor the agonizing journey along the way, just sell the silver lining. If you can make it a subscription that he can easily get out of.

  Sockeye Salmon. The real question we should be asking though is why it is spelled with an “L.” Image

    why is knife spelt with a k?

    why is hour spelt with an h?

    Why is wednesday pronounced wendsday?

    Just is. Michael McIntyre did a good bit about this.

  I still need to process that it is supposed to be pronounced “samon” according this other meme.

  source

  • merc@sh.itjust.works ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    More “samun”, (/ˈsæmən/) because the last syllable turns into a “schwa”, the default unemphasized vowel sound in English.

    source

    • xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Any English vowel can be a schwa if you’re brave enough

      is the term called a “schwa” or does the vowel literaly turn into “schwa”? I can not tell if your’re serious.

    Been pronouncing the L up to now?

    source

    • Kolanaki@pawb.social ⁨20⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I have pronounced the L in salmon since the episode of King of the Hill where Octavio starts hanging out with Hank all the time.

      “Salmon, Hank! They out salmon in the fish tacos!”

      yeah

  Or could it be that the place and time when salmon are easily seen by people is spawning season and at least some of the species turn a bright “salmon pink/red” colour at that time? They are dying then as well, but naturally, so it is still and end of life colour for them.
