I thought you just had to have it in your possession, like on the shelf in the pantry or in the fridge even. My parents always had pickled fish in jars and cans in the pantry and the fridge, they actually ate some of that stuff. I would go in another room and gag.
We have Fin in our heritage and a lot of the fish thing came from that end of the family so I thought that, maybe, just having it in store was good luck or something - I never asked - but if, in order to have the good luck* ...if you have to eat it, hell no!


*Which is arbitrary at best, I'm sure!
