***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
Our two lucky winners as selected by random.org are… Susie (who doesn’t like fish, despite her former employment at Red Lobster) and Sarah (who especially loves Maryland crab, shrimp, salmon, and freshly caught smoked trout). Congrats ladies!
Back when I lived in Brooklyn there was this cool dishware store down the street called Fishs Eddy that I loved. Last Christmas I even bought Sherry two coffee mugs from there. And now, in what can only be called a full circle moment, we’re teaming up with them for a giveaway for you guys. They’ve got tons of fun colorful patterns so we’ve put together three around-$50 prize packages of our favorites: the Food Bank pattern (which benefits the NYC Food Bank), the always-classic 212 New York Skyline pattern, and the playful Charley Harper pattern. So each of our TWO winners will get to pick their favorite collection and take it home.
- PRIZE: One of the following sets of Fishs Eddy dishware: (1) Food Bank set including dishtowel, two mugs, and a set of four sauce dishes, (2) New York Skyline set including salt & pepper shakers, a charger, and a set of four 15oz glasses or (3) Charley Harper set including one fish mug, three fish sauce dishes, and a set of four sunset glasses
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FISH ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: …where do you stand on seafood? Have you never met a piece of salmon, fried shrimp, or crabcake you didn’t like? Or do you avoid fish like the plague (perhaps because it tastes “too fishy” or you’re a vegetarian)? Maybe you fall somewhere in the middle and only enjoy specific seafood dishes?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 5 at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States & Canada (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fishs Eddy.

Fish Me Please…… I will be honest, I lived in NJ for 22 years and now I live in Columbus Ohio. One of my best experiences with fish is when my family and I used to go to the Baltimore Harbor and go to Phillips for Crab Cakes. I have tried crab cakes at other pleases as well, however, no one has lived up to Phillips. Maybe one day you guys will be able to try it. They have a great Aquarium in the Inner Harbor that is great for families.

I love Fishs Eddy – my favorite mugs are from there! In terms of seafood, I tend to stick to fish and shrimp, not a huge lover of other types.

I grew up on the east coast but am a midwesterner at heart — by which I mean seafood = yuck. It’s the texture.

I adore seafood, though sadly can’t eat muscles.
Zoe - SlowMama says
Ooop! I meant mussels! (I can’t eat muscles either!)
Christie says

If I said I didn’t like seafood, I would be disowned :) My parents own a seafood restaurant, and it was a main staple growing up.
Erin says
Fish Me!
But crustaceans only for me to eat.
I was looking at the 212 pattern yesterday. Love it!
Erica Rosebery says

Lindsey says
FISH ME!!!!
I love everything seafood! Especially sushi…like sushi sushi…the raw stuff. When I was 11 and my sister was 14, my family was out having some sushi. My sister HATES anything seafood. So, of course, my dad decided to offer her $150 for her to eat uni (sea urchin). Obviously, she didn’t go for it. But that didn’t stop me from giving up my taste buds. For $150 bucks why not! Unfortunately my family knows me too well and knows I’ll try anything once. Needless to say, I did not get the $$$.
Tricia says
FISH ME!!!! I love all seafood!
Fefe says
Fish Me!
I like fish, but it must – MUST – be cooked. Sushi is absolutely lost on me.
Michele says
fish me
i dig fish. i usually make salmon or tilapia 1x/wk. my husband jokes that he doesn’t know how to tell when fish is done b/c he prefers sushi. :)
Rebecca says
FISH ME!
This may make me the opposite of classy, but the only way I’ll eat fish in is a fish stick or other battered and fried form. Anything else, I just can’t do.
Although I always feel like maybe I should be expanding my horizons (or deepening my oceans?)…
Julie B says
Fish me! :)
I love all things seafood – whether it’s tuna, haddock, crab, mussels, shrimp, cod, lobster – it’s all good! You can probably chalk it up to my Nova Scotia upbringing. Now that I’m living in the Canadian prairies I appreciate the chance to eat fresh seafood even more.
Jennifer says
Fish me! Love all seafood. But I leave the lobster cooking to others
Tara R says
Fish me!! Love seafood. yummy
Rochelle says
FISH ME! I love most seafood, provided it’s fresh. And my hubby is allergic to lobster of all things, so I don’t eat that one as often as I’d like.
Jennifer says
FISH ME! very picky fish eater
Emily says
FISH ME!
I love seafood and eat most kinds, but I say a big fat NO to tuna and cocktail shrimp. Cold shrimp gives me the heebie jeebies!!
Kirsten says
Fish me! I love most seafood, except bivalves like clams, oysters and mussels. The texture just gweebs me out.
Sara says
Fish Me!
I like fish, but don’t eat it nearly enough.
Kristin says
FISH ME!
I’m allergic to shellfish, and I prefer not to eat anything known as a “scavenger,” but I do enjoy regular ol’ fish.
Jenny Ice says
FISH ME!
I like seafood- don’t love it, but like it. I will always try something new!
Kathy says
Fish me! I love all seafood
Heather says
FISH ME! (although I hate seafood=P)
Jane B. says
“FISH ME!” The absolute best salmon ever was the salmon my husband caught on a fishing trip in Alaska. No one else wanted to send home their catch, so my husband took it all. We ate grilled salmon, smoked salmon, salmon catch-a-torrie till the, well, fish came home. It was simply the best!
Kristinah says
Fish me! Fa Rills! That Food bank set is TA DIE FA!
So i way love seafood of all kinds but especially blue crab. I think it’s probably because I live in Springfield Illinois and don’t have access to the super duper fresh stuff. So when I DO eat it, it’s usually a big deal vacation or special occasion.
Being land locked has it’s drawbacks. But hey, NO TSUNAMIS! So, yea!
PERK!
It all evens out. And we have some killer, uh, soybeans.
yep. :)
Aly M says
FISH ME! A tuna melt is probably the extent of what seafood I enjoy :)
