They used to have to wait a long time to get fresh fish under communism, and it was a tradition to eat one at Christmas from before, so they started planning ahead and buying a live fish well before Christmas and keeping it in their bathtub until Christmas so they could still have a fresh fish.

I don't know a single person who does this and if someone actually does it's to make pics and pretend to be a hillbilly on some fb tier website.

Its called being poor and degenerate
Youre asking why people will who dress in tracksuits and work all month for about 30 quid have no taste

>polish people do this?
>polish
>people

What is he trying to say with this combination of words? I haven't been this baffled in ages.

Literally every Polish person does this in Norway.

Well than my experience from Poland contradicts what you wrote in every way.

Like I said I don't know a single person who does this.

wtf I want a fish now.

don't you know?

fish eat old skin.

Where do they bathe then?

they bathe with the fish, obviously

>I personally have never seen it so there's now ay it exists

Stupid fucking Pole.

fish need water to live

Is this something you are open to doing, if given the opportunity?

>communism
>poor
>degenerate
LOOOLLLL XDDD cyka blyat wait in line because no fresh fish :DDDDDDDDD anuuuu cheeki breeki X-D

Yeah, don't mind that the tradition goes few centuries back and often times, a tradition of that age has no practical use to it left except for the sake of continuity. You don't have to always act retarded only because of your flags, you know.

It exists but the point is that not that many people do it anymore, dumbass

to keep the fish alive?

duh?

how fucking dumb are you dude

Because the figure of the carp is easy to spend the winter.

Are you retarded? I know a mass of people and no one even mentions it unless it's some joke.

Has been more than 2 decades since I saw a good damn carp swimming in a bathtub, but it was common. Nowadays, not really.

After you kill the fish and take it out you can take a bath.

Pretty much: Get fish that is still alive and swimming. Put it in the tank to keep it alive (or in the bathtub :P), kill it just before preparing dinner.
Only way it could be any more fresh,would be to eat it alive.

Is it a tradition that you miss?

To keep the carp fresh before eating it, and to allow it to clean itself of mud.

I said that the tradition of eating fish on Christmas predates communism, just the practice of keeping them in bathtubs was due to communism.

Honestly? Not really.
Same as with oranges... Shitload of years ago those were so fucking rare, people were giving them as x-mas "gifts".
Now? I can buy fruits that I never heard about, with a simple trip to the shop.
Fresh fish? Go to restaurant, no problem.
Wanna make it at home? Just buy a fish-tank and keep it there.

srsly...

Everybody do it here too.

>int is retarded as usual

you buy the fish the day before you eat it/on the day
put it into the tub
kill it
prepare it

its not a thing anymore

isnt carp a delicacy in poland?

i love japanese posters.

we do this, too

We also do this

maybe you don't know anyone

doh ho ho ho ho

Bloody hell my family does it too
and i hate it

And you put it in a bathtub because carps live in the mud and this clears them up a bit.

It's a disgustinng fish, but tradition is a tradition.

I'm not sure if it is what's happening in the picture, but every time I catch crawdads I leave them in the bath like this over night. It gives them a chance to shit everything out and in the morning the tub is full of shit, but my food is not.

I also used to do this with my fish, you can really taste the difference that the fresh water makes.

I believe this is also done for commercially farmed fish such as tilapia.

then do this. everybody here is mocking poles but this isnt that bad. its unique and looks fun to me

I'm a normie I know fuckloads of people.

This is just common sense, but people so far removed from nature they don't know this anymore.

A half of young Brits don't know that ham comes from a pig ffs.

Maybe they think it grows on trees or something.

To be fair, half of young Brits can't eat pork, so it kinda makes sense.

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

THEY CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!!!!

>he doesn't flush his bottom feeders with fresh water before cleaning

You're literally eating shit and I am the retard?
