Salmon is so delicious that it is delicious no matter how one prepares it.

Raw, baked, fried, smoked (as on a bagel), it is all delicious.

Spoiler:
"you are bears" → plural subject complement implies plural subject; bears are known for catching salmon from rivers (and of course eating them raw); the two people immediately preceding the comment talked about eating raw salmon; therefore those two people are likely the referents.

Yep, I'm smarter than your average bear. Eh, Boo-Boo?

* Note: Yogi Bear gives himself human-associated gender marking; I'm thinking the first-person generally will trigger that.
