Just happened to shop for some Easter eggs and found this offer at Coles Malvern (Victoria). It's label says "Best before 9 Dec 2013". Not sure when the 'quick' sale ends. I guess sale over when it's all gone.

Get it if you do lots of asian cooking and happen to be there.

Coles Malvern : 164-178 Glenferrie Rd, Malvern VIC 3144

      At first I thought it was Dec 12, but BB date is in Dec 13. Why so cheap?

      escimojoe: stop be-littling the poor man ;)

      You could squeeze your own fish

    The Ancient Romans considered fish sauce (which they called Garum) to be the finest of all condiments.

    • strangeloops66 on 28/03/2013 - 01:30

      The Garum Shop was across the road from the brothel, hence the mythology surrounding women's private parts and the smell of fish.

        Obviously not just mythology for negger ;)

        Yeeeeaaah. Might want to… get some hands-on experience before making that call; you'll come to find Fish Sauce to be a delightful fragrance by comparison.

    Mm that sauce is normally in a glass bottle.

    But aside from that it's a good sauce, and is neutral enough to be OK for most recipes (they vary in taste between nationalities).

    Good deal.

      yeh I've heard the south american squid prefer to eat their shrimp with a little salt whereas the Greenland squid prefer them chilled

      • Natt on 27/03/2013 - 21:22

        Lol I think that wins!

    • KBZ on 27/03/2013 - 21:42

      It's better that its in a plastic bottle. If you ever drop the glass bottle in the kitchen/car/etc the smell would annoy the hell out of you.

        Cleaning is also an option

        • [Deactivated] on 27/03/2013 - 22:43

          Doesn't that cost extra?

          You've obviously never had the chance/pleasure to clean up spilt fish sauce. Try it and report back.

        • slowmo on 27/03/2013 - 23:56

          selling the house and buying a new one would be a better option.

        That happened once at my place… Worst day ever!

      • Gnostikos on 28/03/2013 - 16:48

        Everyone knows Coke for instance, tastes better out of a glass bottle than from a can or a plastic bottle, and there's a very good reason for that.

        Plastics have things called leachates; which can affect the taste of many things stored within them and possibly have harmful effects on your health with cumulative consumption.

        Nothing beats good ol' glass when it comes to taste.

        Why do you think most laboratory equipment is all glass, even in this day and age? They can't afford the possibility of residual leachates contaminating other compounds/liquids.

    It's the best fish sauce available for a couple of dollars. At 50c it's a steal, plastic glass whatever :D

    I often use tuna oil that you buy in tackle shops to coat my bait in before i go fishing. This is way cheaper I wonder if it will work…

    • cornbeef on 28/03/2013 - 00:12

      i gather this isn't innuendo.

    • strangeloops66 on 28/03/2013 - 02:02

      I would have thought that this was more likely to scare fish away.

  • c0balt on 27/03/2013 - 21:50

    Also spotted this at the South Melbourne Coles.

  • hluu0111 on 27/03/2013 - 22:15

    @ c0balt: you saw it on sale in S. Melbourne?

    • c0balt on 28/03/2013 - 00:01

      Yep. Pretty sure it was up the back of the soft drinks aisle where it hits the dairy section. I went to grab one thinking it was a 50c fruit juice than then saw 'fish sauce' on it and put it right back. Not a fan of the stuff but a very good bargain for those who are.

      • cornbeef on 28/03/2013 - 00:13

        particularly if its in the drinks section and you have a raging thirst

      • Craze on 28/03/2013 - 06:38

        Thanks cobalt, will pick one up st south Melbourne for some Asian cooking. Can't go wrong with that price really…
