The Evil.

I have to write an essay on food or something related to it. OK!!!

This sounds so easy, and yet because I love food so very much it is so hard to narrow down just exactly what I could possible focus in on! Staci suggested I write about Rosemary, my mortal enemy, and so I am doing just that.

As I write, I am wondering if there are foods that you all hate. I'm not talking about you don't like the taste or the texture, I'm talking about a food that is most likely mentally connected to a bad experience or harsh memory and so it deeply affects you with emotional regurgitation when you experience its presence, a loathing of sorts, a deep and unapologetic disdain for the flavor, appearance, smell, existence of said substance...

anyone? (maybe I'm just psycho?)

I think of this every time someone even says roast beef. (does not include the oh so good Arby's beef n' cheddar) I had THE worst expereince my sophomore year in high school. I ate a roast beef sandwich before basketball practice, and in between getting a terrible migrain and literally running my guts out, I had the sudden urge to regurgitate the nasty green slimy beef that was taking up way too much room in my stomach at the time (sick, I know) I have NEVER eaten store bought roast beef since.

I would say - (is it weird that most of our fod ewws center around meat?)

I HATE bologna. Hate it wa sa passion. Can't handle the consistancy, the smell or the taste.
