What's your problem with fish oil?

RE: arthritis at 29 ?!?!
Even the least "fishy" fish tastes icky to me. Somewhere in middle school, I just stopped liking it. Sometimes, I can eat popcorn shrimp, but that's about it. I grew up near the Gulf Coast, spending many vacations on a boat in a lake or on the Gulf, fishing. My mom can cook them very well, and I've had them cooked other ways, too. Fish turns my stomach. Sometimes, even Cesar dressing (which has fish in it) can do the same.
