Back in the days when all fish balls were made by hand, they often joked in Matsu that if a couple who made fish balls got in a big spat, you should be sure and buy their fish balls the next day, for the husband and wife would both work off their anger the next day by pounding the fish paste extra fine, which would result in especially delicious fish balls.
