mmm tasty things that other people hate
Apr. 3rd, 2007 12:18 pmI'm sitting here spreading chopped chicken livers on crackers thinking about how I eat a number of things that other people in my life thing are totally disgusting, and wondering about other people's habits in this regard.
Two of these things come from my father: chicken livers, and smoked clams/oysters in little tins. When I was a kid, my dad used to order chicken livers from KFC (I wonder if they still make those?) and I really liked them. A few years ago I tried chicken livers in another context and they were super tasty. I don't eat them often or make them at home, but I really like them. My dad also used to eat smoked oysters or clams from the tin. We used to eat sardines together too, but I've grown to be less fond of those.
The last thing I can think of offhand that I really like that other people in my life loathe is kombucha. It's this fermented tea full of probiotics. It's sour and fizzy with a vinegar-y aftertaste, and I find it really refreshing. Fox thinks it is the most disgusting thing he has ever tasted. I really like sour things in general, and vinegar is lovely. I like to drink full glasses of water with a little vinegar in them, and kombucha reminds me of that only a little sweeter and fizzy.
So what about you? Do you have favorite tasty things that disgust your friends and family? Sai and Tristissima, you don't count because you both always eat disgusting weird things of your own invention.
In totally unrelated news, this comic is awesome. I'm a huge fan of
basic_inst, and this is one of the best.
