Fish Maw Salad from Thailand

Fish Maw Salad

Here's a fish maw (air bladder) salad from some random place in Karon Beach, Phuket. Admittedly this was a bit of a touristy place (see those useless slices of cucumber and tomato as a garnish on the side?), so in order to make the most of the situation, I tried to order something different, and this is what I found. I wasn't expecting the fish maw to be deep fried, but this turned out well. In fact, it tasted so much like pork rinds that I wondered if they really were pork instead. Well, this worked for me...everything except for those little chunks of pineapple in here. I'm not sure if they are supposed to be in here or not, but they were.
