finally, a list meme that looks fun!
Aug. 19th, 2008 10:49 pm1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you've eaten.
3)Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
4)Bold and cross out any items you never would again.
adding one: 5) Italicise those which you'd like to eat.
( i've tried about 49 -- no, 50 of these... )
so basically, things i don't eat: overly spicy food, or unattractive internal organs. and roadkill.
