Japanese Sand Lance

So, today in Voice we were talking about various kinds of fish and the students mentioned something called 'ikanago'. They said it was a regional specialty in Hyogo / Kobe and that everyone makes a big batch of it every year, boiled with soy sauce and sugar. I'd never heard of it, but they wanted to know the English name, so I checked on google and lo and behold 'Japanese Sand Lance,' it was. So know I know, and now you know, and soon the students will know too. The picture was just so vile I felt I needed to share it with someone.
