5/2 Questionable Food

5/2/2013: I forgot to mention in my previous post that I have a new "grossest thing I've ever eaten" story. Blood. Curdled blood. I'd read a little bit that various parts of Asia use blood in their food - sometimes a "blood sausage," in other cases it's just "curdled" or cooked until it takes solid form. Ariel and I went to a restaurant for lunch and I ordered some rice noodle soup with pork. It was tasty, but had some strange purplish cubes in it. I joked that it was blood, but tried not to think about it much. Later that day I google-imaged "blood tofu" and it was exactly what I'd eaten. And there's no tofu in it...Ariel pointed out that "flesh" should be just as gross as "blood," but it's still hard to accept.
