LOUD HUZZZAHS to both!!
A morning of eggs, thick hominy grits with butter, scrapple fried crispy crunchy, and chicory coffee makes the rest of the day a great day every time!
In Norway they do the same with cod to make lutefisk.
When I first moved to Norway I was dubious but I ended up loving the stuff - although it does have a lot to do with what you have with it.

I love scrapple too and since I'm from New Brunswick origianlly I can relate, the real fav though has to be Taylor Ham.
Oh I love tinned kippers as well, never had the real stuff. From the desciptions of stinky whilst cooking, it sounds sorta like bulad in the Philippines.
Okay, dang it. I have to know.
Is there anything I, as a benighted resident of the American midwest, do, that would approximate what you folks are talking about?
Here's the thing: I open a can of this. Then I drain off the juice (which, if I had a cat, would go into the cat's kibble bow). So.... what *should* I do to those lovely little pinkish strips of smelly yummy fishness? What -- that would be more civilized than just forking it out and into my mouth -- should I do?
I'm so ashamed -- but I don't know any better when it comes to kippers.

Just stick them on a piece of hot buttered toast, grind over some pepper and make a pot of tea!

I always keep a few tins of Brunswick Seafood Snack kippers on hand. They make a nice change from bacon with your morning eggs. Low in saturated fat, high in Omega-3, vitamin D and protein ( if you can believe the label).
Made by Connors Bros of Black Harbor New Brunswick.
There is another brand called Golden Smoked that is very good, with a less salty and smokey flavor.
I grease a dish with butter, break a couple of eggs in it, top with a couple of tinned kippers and pop in the microwave for a minute and a half. By the time the tea and toast are made you have a tasty, heart healthy hot breakfast in minutes.

A review of Brunswick Golden Smoked (with sandwich recipe!)
http://www.grubgrade.com/reviews/sn...seafood-snacks-golden-smoked-herring-fillets/
Brunswick company
http://www.cloverleaf.ca/en/products/category/brunswick-seafood-snacks/
Amazon has them but they charge $47.99 for 18 tins. The last ones I bought were $1.25 on sale, usually they are $1.89 in the local grocery stores.

I can find kippers in the grocery store. But only the canned ones. I love them. And...no one else around me normally does...the wife makes me eat them outside.
Interestingly enough my five-year-old daughter will eat anchovies and kippers from the can.
I like that little girl.

You mean you didn't wear a kipper tie and have big hair back in the 70's?
Tony, it's not difficult to make fresh smoked kippers, as long as you have somewhere that you can buy the herrings.

Only ever had tinned kippers, but I love the things. I've noticed some folks here mention serving them over buttered toast, which I have yet to try. Any other recommended means of consuming the tasty fish? I've only ever eaten them from the tin, and I suppose I should evolve a little.

The tinned ones are tasty but truth be told not really the real deal.
One thing though you can do with the tinned ones is make an easy kedgeree with them, we have them in the pantry for just such a purpose.
My father used to eat the tinned smoked kippers & also oysters on saltine crackers with a small dob of Mayo. I like them that way, but prefer the canned kippers with tomato sauce or mustard to adding mayo. Will try boiling the tin, and eating with eggs.
