try new kinds of food

Truly, I eat something new every place I go now so I don’t post every time I try something. It is so much fun. I love trying new things and not knowing how things will turn out…I love that feeling of it could go either way…really love something or really hate it. It’s great. I also have been trying foods I previously have dismissed and thought I didn’t like. Olives, I don’t mind thee too bad! Raisins, apparently when I was a kid I thought they were gross so I never eat them. Low and behold I really like them now!

BUT I still haven’t gone to extremes. Restaurants that I have never been to…foods that are out of my comfort zone totally. I have to start this this week. I’m thinking seafood…lobster? I’ve never really tried it for fear my throat will swell up in some cataclysmic allergic reaction. I’m weird with fish. I always ask myself, is this the day I want to get rushed to the emergency room? I’m odd, I know.

Apparently the whole world is behind me on this simple goal. Got to work today and opened my “cina-melt(that’s what they should be called)” from McDonalds, low and behold it was a freakin Egg McMuffin. I can’t say I eat egg mcmuffins as I don’t eat ham. But today I bit the bullet and bit the Mcmuffiness. Not too bad. See my secret is, I let the incompetence of the McDonalds team do all the work. Now I need to move out of the fast food realm and into real foods.

on a side note, they also did not give me back my debit card when I went through, but who cares about those little things really?

I went to Wendys for lunch. No big deal right? Well, I made myself order something I never had before and did not get my usual fare. I’m proud of myself. Even if it was just ordering a number whatever instead of another number whatever.

I don’t branch out too much when it comes to food. But as I get older I am less picky. I feel like I am getting tired of all the food I eat. I plan on going to some restaurants I normally would never try and learning what it is I like there. It would make eating out so much more fun.
