I occasionally see jellied eels in very old school east London chippies, but that's it. It's probably less common than something like rocky mountain oysters in America and I'd honestly rather eat the eels lmao.

Use every part of the animal.

Also come on, they're deepfried. Everythings the same deepfried.

They're just a historical novelty. I've seen one takeaway advertise jellies eels in my old hometown (Sutton), which I'm pretty sure is there just to signal they're an old school spoons/takeaway rather than be a top-selling item
