It is believed in jamaican culture that if the head of the Cod fish or "saltfish" as we call it is ever seen, people would refrain from eating it, as it has features of that of a human.
I have had the opportunity to see it and believe me, now i know why this fish is always sold headless. It has literal hair on its head, yes like that of a human , though the features werent exactly that of a human, it can clearly be said it is very ugly, and it does really look like a fish! sorry i didnt have a camera , i was on a foreign boat in Curacao.
Tell me your take on it, and why there is no real pics of it on the net?

i had a conversation somewhere about saltfish and what it really looks like but i have seen a picture that was from jamaicaand it looked like it had long ears and a nose like ours if had been cut of and i think it was like a gery-y colour...is that what you saw?
