I had some danish ribs to use for a comp, and as we were prepping them there was a fishy smell coming from somewhere, come to find out it was the ribs. After reading the package and seeing that they Danish ribs, one of the guys on the team told me that the pigs are fed nothing but fish product, hence the reason for the 'odd' taste, smell and cheap price, needless to say we did not use those ribs for the comp.
