How do you get the water out of those boxes in bad conditions? I would be concerned about having shipped a great deal of water and now those boxes have filled somehow and need to drain or be pumped out. Maybe I dont understand.

Oh Yea. People eat them. You have to bleed them right away and ice. There are many ways to prepare them, most of which require soaking the meat in something for long periods of time, which tells you something. Some people will eat them raw.

There is one more way of telling if it is bad. Take a piece of silver and place it in the meat for ten min and if it turns blackish do not eat it.

The best way to check fish for that is to place some of the meat on an ant hill and if they run from it it is no good.
