"We're FDA-approved. They took two-pound samples out to Washington to test it. Two pounds, mind you! As far as I know, we were one of the first in the state to do it."
Griffiths smacks his lips. "The hackleback is inkier than the paddlefish, not quite as creamy."

The trio discusses volume and prices, and Rost promises to call the next time he harvests paddlefish, saying he'll bring some less salty hackleback, too.
"We'll do something with it," says Griffiths. "I'm impressed."
