Don't like bugs on my food, although I'm curious as to what scorpions or some large insects taste like.

once when i was in town after litening to music, we were walking along the footpath to go to the car.
i saw an empty can of "jim beam rum & cola " sitting on the ground in an upright position near a wall.
i was in a frivolous mood so i ran and stamped my hard soled shoe heel onto the can to flatten it.
i slightly missed and my heel did not cover the drinking hole when my foot hit the can.
the can was not empty.
it had about 1/4 of the drink left in it.
it sprayed out of the hole and onto my face and shirt, and it was a soup of rum mixed with cockroach parts. there must have been 20 big dead cockroaches that drowned in that can, and the contents just burst out and i had legs and abdomens and all sorts of bit's sprayed on me.

i ran back to the night club and washed myself off in the restroom, and i did not wear my shirt again because i left it there.
i did not recover for a few days from that one. my friend had to drive my car that night.

Which brings me to my big fear of creepy crawlies: worms. When I heard you could get fish worms from sushi I didn't touch the stuff for like 6 months :pale:


OMG!! ! Worms! Did you ever see that thing on Animal Planet about parasitic worms? Tape worms and stuff? It was the sickest show I've ever seen in my life! (I was going to post a picture of one of those 50 ft tape worms - but I can't...bring...myself...to it.... :eew: :eew:

IMHO, you are justified in your fear of getting worms from sushi! I won't eat cheap sushi.

I had rice again today, and believe me, I was looking for maggots in every bite. I guess I should make that a meal that I only eat when I'm drunk. That way I won't care if there's bugs in it or not. :lol:
