There's a sign on your back that says "I'M FRENCH".

Shellfish is wonderful, especially in haemul tang. Snails are disgusting, as both Koreans and most Westerners know.

I don't care for sea cucumber either; it's what I imagine chewing on a tire would feel like. I also don't like 멍게 (sea squirt)


Sea squirt is the only thing grosser than sea cucumber. The rank taste lingers in your mouth for days through garlic and multiple tooth-brushings.

I like fruit, but I rarely eat it. I ate lots of fruit when I was a kid but now it just seems like a lot of effort and expense for... meh. Fruit. Whatever.

And mushrooms.


Does that include the Barefoot Contessa? Cool


Yes, but I would be willing to consider making an exception for Giada.


An exception I definitely would not fault you for!!

Nah, I'm American (parents are from Puerto Rico), but I just think they're delicious. Had 'em for the first time on a cruise ship in Alaska and again at a French restaurant in Chicago.

To add to the list of things I hate:

- Shrimp
- Fish eggs
- Squid
- Anything that smells like farts
- That disgusting icy radish juice that smells like ass. Fluckin' gross. I throw up even when I see Koreans drinking/eating it.
- Chicken skin
- The fat they always leave on the meat here in Korea. Gross. How can anyone chew & swallow that shite? I gag everytime.

Ooooh, I hate fatty parts of beef and pork. Barf me and gag me with a spoon. Give me generous portions of lean meat. I want big chicken and big boneless fish. I've only been getting this tiny chicken n fish with tiny bones stuff. Sure is poor 3rd world country style cousine. Lunch blows.

I know! Where are the fish filets? I told my CT about boneless chicken and fish and they didn't know what I was talking about.

For lunch today we had chicken that was almost all bones and breading. I have to serve myself double just to get enough protein. And then one teacher slapped on a huge spoonful of these green vegetables dumped in chili pepper sauce on my tray even though I told him I was only going to eat a few.
