RE: Omg the fizzy water I lurv

in #ulog6 years ago

hey now! bunnies like onions! thats fakenews right there.

hmmm such strong words, hate and love. however I have one story from my first week of kindergarten.

the teacher told us she would blindfold each of us, one at a time, then give us something to taste. we had to guess what food it was.

I remember thinking to myself, (out of all the food tastes in the world), please please dont let me get mustard!! ~ since at that time I absolutely could not stand mustard.

what do i get? mustard. but i couldn't remember what mustard was actually called, just how it tasted, so I guessed mayonnaise.

I wound up not only with mustard mouth, but embarrassed as well for not being able to recall the name of it.

I (strongly and passionately disliked) mustard for years afterwards. when i was about 30, I was in a deli ordering a tuna sandwich. the deli guy asked me if i wanted mustard on it. i told him no, i dont like mustard.

after some discussion, he then dared me. he said, "listen, I think you will like mustard on this sandwich. I dare you to try it. I'm gonna make it, and if you dont like it after tasting it, i will make you a new one".

I took that dare, thinking to prove him wrong. instead, I was surprised that I did indeed like it. after that I started putting mustard in certain things. I don't love it, but I have acquired a fond taste for it, especially in tuna.

coincidentally, this happened with a few different foods i disliked as a child, such as coffee and jalapenos. it also worked in reverse. i used to love liverwurst. lesson: taste buds change.

omg tuna and mustard is the best torico... the best... specially because tuna is the best already
