There is an alternative defenition of a Bloater.
In England Bloaters are found mainly in the form of a "paste", a savoury spread for bread.
Bloater paste sandwiches have been a main ingredient of the traditional English afternoon tea particularly during the Edwardian era.
The Bloater in this case is a large fatty herring, salted and briefly smoked.
Shiphams of Chichester still make Bloater paste.

So, is the British food item called a "bloater" because the intact innards cause the fish body to bloat up during smoking? And is the US fish called a "bloater" because of any similarity in taste to British bloaters, or for some other reason? Curious -- Erik Anderson, 69.29.208.52 (talk) 23:42, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
