　　W: Not to worry. Although it's made primarily from fish, it actually doesn't have a fishy taste. In fact it can be flavored with tomato, cheese, or chocolate for instance.

　　M: [9] How could it not taste fishy? Do you know how this snack food is made?

　　W: First, the fish is minced, cooked and fermented, then water and starch are added to make a dough.

　　M: It sounds awful.

　　W: Actually the dough is very bland at that point. So the flavorings are added to give it some taste.

　　M: Well, it still sounds a little strange. [10] But I suppose this product will at least be low calorie and high protein, like a health food.

　　W: Yes, you could call it that. And it has a long shelf life, so it won't spoil quickly. It is also easy to digest and can be made from types of fish that usually aren't eaten or from high grade fish byproducts.

　　M: Have you got any samples? I might be willing to try the cheese-flavored variety.

　　W: No. [11 ] None of these seems to be available yet. As I understand it, this fish snack food probably won't be in the stores for another couple of years. So you have a while to get used to the whole idea.

　　W: Well, actually, [13] we rehearse only one night a week, Thursdays from seven to ten, though we would have to put in extra time before performance.

　　M: Only once a week, you say, Well, could you give me some time to think it over?
