Nobody eats them

I like those. Good at Christmas. In my region we eat them with strong cheese.

Golden fish

Goldfish can indeed be lucky. Fun too; have you read Lace by Shirley Conran or seen the mini-series?

The Polish are very superstitious and traditional.

Yes, apart from goldfish, they also keep other animals at Christmas to bring good luck:
e.g, llamas are very popular:

As well as sheep, donkeys and goats. Sometimes camels.

Nobody does. It's just more drivel from the attention seeking monkey.

Camel (I've had it many times but avoid it unless I have to eat it to be polite, since I like camels) tastes something between beef and lamb. A bit closer to beef. Not the best meat and usually eaten in places where they cook the meat as soon as it's killed, so it tends to be tough.

You can buy it in Poland at Makro, frozen.

Ukrainian kvass, Polish bread and Jewish carp at Christmas supper - the amazing unity of 3 nations.

3 nations.

Cultures, of course.

Cultures

I prefer that term to nations.

The meal with the three different elements shows how complex Poland is and what a rich history (and present) it has.
