Hmmmm.....I have a feeling there is a story that is begging to be told right there.Turiya Foul wrote:Hmm, squash is one of the only yellow foods that I can tolerate.I like spinach too, but I agree with you about the zucchini and the brussel sprouts. I abosolutely hate asparagus. Cherry pie and fish mixed together in one meal is the work of Satan.

Can't stand anything that tastes like viniger. And tomatoes are icky and squishy and just tasteless altogether.

It's amazing how the galley (ship's cafeteria) can ruin perfectly easy, tasty meals. Meatballs, for instance (guess what was for lunch today). They somehow created a barbecue sauce not fit for human consumption and just slathered it onto the meatballs.
They can make a decent marinara for the veal parmesian and spaghetti they serve every three days or so, but they can't seem to do the same for pizza on saturdays (remember your school's cafeteria's pizza... it's like that).
The funny thing is, after you've been eating nothing but the galley food for a week or so, most of it doesn't seem that bad (some things dulled taste buds can't even fix... like Chicken ala King that tasted like fish).
I don't like a whole lot of green vegetables such as peas and brussel sprouts (the worst, as they taste like old socks... worse, since I can put old socks in my mouth without gagging), but I do really like asparagus (I cuss, you cuss, we all cuss for asparagus... even better if you go hunting for wild asparagus) and artichokes.
I usually can't eat fish, though I've found that the less it's cooked (breading and overcooking really brings out the nasty fish taste), the better it is. I've discovered I actually like sushi.

"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Such a lighthearted word, tripe,- for such a horrific food item!Infelice wrote:Tripe is the stomach of a cow. I can't go into further detail as my gagging reflex will kick in.
Now Head cheese, that sounds as nasty as it oughta!
(For the uninitiated, it is little pieces of brain and whatnot, molded into lunchmeat form, but so much more colorful than bland uniform pink bologna! Bologna is vanilla compared to this!
