For Fun...

Thanks to Double Nickel Farm, I found this list of the top foods people love or hate, and here's my take on the list:

1. White Chocolate: Gag. It isn't even chocolate, and it's way too freakin' sweet. Lauren would probably try to live off the stuff if I let her, though.

2. Cilantro: It took me awhile to find that I like cilantro, but it is a nice, yummy addition, and a must for pico de gallo!

3. Eggplant: Eh, I could go either way with this one. If it's prepared well, it's really yummy. I just don't know how to prepare it well.

4. Coconut: Mmmm, I love the stuff! Especially fresh. Though getting inside still kinda eludes me.

5. Tomato: fresh, home grown (or farmer's market purchased) are the best. I don't eat too many fresh tomatoes outside of tomato season for that reason. We always have canned tomato products in the pantry.

6. Anchovies: Never tried them, not sure I could stomach them.

7. Black licorice: I hate this even more than I hate white chocolate. It really is gag-inducing for me.

8. Stinky cheeses: If I'm in the mood. And not sitting next to Aubrey. She pukes when she smells feta.

9. Mayo: A thin layer on my sandwich is nice for some moisture, and I'll happily add it to recipes. Oh, an as far as I'm concerned, Mayo and Miracle Whip are the same. I never eat enough of the stuff to tell the difference.

10. Bell Pepper: Super yummy!

11. Beets: Boiled and buttered or pickled, I can't go wrong with beets. Aubrey can pack away more pickled beets in one sitting then anyone else I've met. She makes me proud. :-)

So, do you love 'em or hate 'em?

    6. anchovies-never eatten a raw one or anything like that, but i hear they are in cesar dressing, and i like cesar dressing.

    7. black licorice-i'm with you. SO gross! i can't even stand the smell.

    8. stinky cheese-i suppose i'm pretty neutral to this one. i could go either way.

    9. mayo-i think i'm the same as you. and i agree miracle whip & mayo in my opinion is the same thing, but i like miracle whip better.

    10. bell pepper-i cooked with this last night too! yummy. any color, i'll take it! raw or cooked.
