[QUOTE="Parisiv, post: 2741555, member: 916434"] OK. Here it goes. Most people believe that fish smells bad. This is entirely not true. Very fresh fish does not smell at all except for a whiff of ocean in the case of saltwater fish and seafood. When the fish is a few hours to a couple of days old, still fresh and provided it has been kept at low temperatures, it start to smell like...fish. However this is not a very pleasant smell (the kind you smell at some supermarkets and you'd rather stay away. It still is good enough to eat but does not make for a happy nose. Rotten is when it's gone bad and bacteria has invaded. It smells really bad and that's when you need to trash it. If you ate the fish and you're not extremely sick and in pain then it was not rotten at all. If cooking or baking removes the smell then it is not rotten but just not the freshest possible. If it was rotten it would still smell bad after cooking AND taste like Sh*t. Lucky for you. Why would you take such risks when you thought it was rotten? [/QUOTE]
