thefridayfivehere:
1. Do you like spicy food?
I love love love spicy foods, though usually stick in the range from jalapeño to habanero, and don't feel a need to regularly consume something as hot as Carolina Reaper. I also prefer traditional pepper heat to wasabi-style heat.
2. Do you like your cereal crunchy or soggy?
Crunchy please. Soggy cereal is one of the very few sensory issues I have.
3. Do you like ice in your drinks?
Not generally, because I do not like very cold things in general. See the recent scandal-post of consuming plain hot water during the day.
4. What is the strangest thing you have eaten?
"Strange" is really subjective. Before I was vegan, I had elk while traveling and working on the Navajo Nation, which is obviously not "strange" for the people living there, but it was new to me and I remember being conflicted about it while also trying to honor my hosts. I would obviously not eat that now. Oh, actually, stranger than that, a really strange thing to eat - I had pica while pregnant with my Oldest over 20 years ago and I actually ate a little bit of clean red clay, more than once. I also stupidly tried powdered laundry detergent because I had an overwhelming craving at the time, but that went about as expected and was not actually swallowed. (Pica is weird, man.)
5. What food would you like to eat right this minute? I am actually not that hungry because I met a friend for lunch at the Stairway to Veggin' foodtruck, and that was a fried chik'n patty covered in alfredo sauce and topped with basil, spinach, and sundried tomatoes on toasted brioche, and tater tots. :P
