If you don't eat salmon, substitute your favorite canned fish.

Anyway, I love to open a can of canned salmon, remove the spinal column and whatever rib bones I can, add egg, just enough cornmeal to make things stick together, some garlic salt and onion powder (a concession for the wife, I hate chunks of onion, she loves the taste, so we use powder) and form this mixture into patties. Then fry it and soak it in any sort of hot sauce and cover it in cheese then enjoy.

I've been doing this since I was a kid and my grandma would make those patties for me and my grandpa for breakfast.

On to the point of the thread:

When you open the can, there are bones in the fish. They don't pick 'em out at the cannery. So what do you do with them? Poll coming.

I eat the canned Salmon after picking out the larger crunchy bones.  Drain it and consume at room temp with a fork.

Also, this has to be the most technically correct poll I've ever seen!  Most fail at making a poll in some way, but you, sir, are the expert!

I am not a fan and will remove them if found before being crunched.  My wife loves them.

I lay the bones out on the table and then trace the outline of the bones with a toothpick dipped in mayo. Create my very own miniature CSI crime scene....

Eat them.

Salmon cakes are comfort food in our family, we all loved how our mom made them––a can of salmon (bones and all), drain and reserve the juice.  One egg, crush up some saltines (like breadcrumbs or the cornmeal), salt, pepper, some minced onion and maybe 1/3-1/2 the juice.  Form patties and fry 'til golden brown and delicious.  Then make milk/cream gravy with the crunchies in the pan (maybe even sacrifice one patty chopped up), and add the rest of the juice to the gravy.  Mmmmmmmm good.  

It's also good right out of the can with saltine crackers.

What is this "canned Salmon" you speak of?

Can't everyone go into their backyards and pluck the salmon out of an icy clear river and place it onto the grill?

You kids sicken me

Oh yeah, I live in Alaska where we can do that

I don't eat fish, never had a taste for it so this is new to me.  I've seen cans of tuna opened, and it appeared to be a gray mush with no bones, but they can salmon and leave the bones in it?

Good stuff. I made a batch a few days ago.

Canned salmon is awesome.  



The bones are so soft from cooking that they're no trouble at all.   Just eat 'em.  They're a good source of calcium.



However, since I make kidney stones easily, I pick the bones out because the last thing a kidney stone maker needs is supplementary calcium!

Cutting your finger on the lid is way worse than picking the bones out of canned salmon.
