So the other day I ate pig intestine! Gross, right? Actually, not even close; it was freakin' delicious! It was crispy on the outside and chewy, like fat, on the inside. It was seasoned with some pretty good spices and after getting over the thought of the food, I can honestly say that I would order it again! I've tried some vegetables that I would never had tried back in the states, even though they aren't scary at all!! Green beans, duck, pig intestine, even something as simple as lamb!! Some of these things I've never tried that are common to most people that I was afraid to try, but I'm getting over these barriers.
My friends are helping me out, too. They aren't telling me what I'm eating/ordering so I eat it, thinking that it's good, and then I find it's good and get over the negative thought. They're jerks for doing it, but I love them for helping me get over my irrational fear of food.
Short one today, but I was proud of myself for eating pig intestine and knowing that it's pig intestine halfway through the dish.
Go me.
If/When you go to Cambodia, let me know how the tarantulas taste!
