The restaurant I ate at last night served about 40 people all the same fish dish and used about half that amount. I suspect that a lot went for fertilizer. Freezers were not available at the time but the fish could have been dried.

With the depression going on I suspect not one of those fish went to waste. Salted down if not shared and eaten right away.

Missus Laura Lillian rescued every stray cat in Roslyn Heights, then expanded her sweeps to all of Nassau County, and on occasion, Queens Borough. Good thing her brother Longstreet Lillian was an avid angler.
