When it comes to food, I'm REALLY bad. Just ask AlyBear. I'll try most things, but I HATE fish!!! I remember being on a desert island and it got to a point where I actually liked the taste of tuna. Many of you are probably laughing at that, but I honestly HATE the taste of fish. Now that I have other options again, the taste of tuna, even when prepared the same way, makes me vomit. I can't even eat meat off the bone!!! It makes me want to spew. I'm not a vegetarian. I just don't like eating anything off the bone. Maybe it was a traumatic thing from childhood, I can't remember. But when it comes to everyday food, I'm really picky!!!

But that experience taught me that if I was hungry enough, I would end up eating most things, just to stay alive.

Weird things I've eaten include, ants, snake, crocodile, scorpion, spider, meal worms, fly burgers (shockingly nice), buffalo, and probably a few other things I've forgotten about. But there are things I wouldn't consider eating until I was in a SHTF scenario.
