I'm home sick and all I want to eat is cookies...

My Whoppers comment seemed to cause as much of a stir as I expected it to, last posting.

I am glad to note that some of you have sensible taste buds and agree with me.

It is strange to think how many foods there are that cause such divide amongst friends. How one group of people can consider a food to be the most scrumptious thing in the whole world, and yet to others, there is little more revolting available.

Stranger still is when the pro-group is faced with the knowledge that someone else is very much anti, they sometimes become incensed! Unable to comprehend why anyone would dislike the food in question. 

I think Sushi is probably the most obvious example. I am sorry... I hate sushi. Every time someone learns this, the following conversation takes place:

Them: What? Sushi is delicious!

Me: I don't like it.

Them: It isn't all raw fish you know.

Me: Yes, I know.

Them: You'd like the vegetarian stuff.

Me: I've had the vegetarian stuff.

Them: From where? Because you'd love it from "Insert Sushi Place Here"! It's so good.

Me: I really wouldn't.


Y'all need to stop acting like it is a personal insult or challenge that I don't, and never will, enjoy this food. It isn't going to happen. Just think of it this way: that's more gross sushi for you!

Some other foods which I will never enjoy: olives (they taste like 9 different types of hell), shellfish (especially Clam Chowder... who had the bright fucking idea to put a clam in milk?!), and ham (even before I stopped eating pigs, I thought ham just stated like pink salt).

Now, to go pass out with my flu!
