My own hair is getting a tad unkempt. I wonder if Atsali makes house calls?

I wonder how effective liquified salmon would be as a rocket fuel, though.

Probably better than salami.

I do not wish to know... Some things are best left unexamined.

My initial take would be there is more inherent caloric value in Salami than in Fish Flesh/Salmon. (Mmmm, sake.... < insert Homer Simpson drooling >.
Also, there is a higher water content to Salmon, which, unless you are really ramping up the combustion temp, is only useful as a heat transfer medium and reaction mass. ('Heavy' Fuel is less than optimal.)

After a bit of experimentation, I found it to be very effective...but only if you're firing your rocket upstream...
