Round 14
What new-to-you food or dish did you try last?

--- -- --- -- --- -- --- -- --- -- --- -- --- --
I last tried an Edward's Chocolate Cream Pie from the frozen section! It sounded good, and I especially wanted the crust, the cream and the frozen chocolate bits. It was suuuper sweet and chocolatey, but I found eating on it a little at a time (one piece circa midnight for "midnight snack" every night until it was gone) was the most appeasing.

time is not linear in my head tbh, i can't remember what was truly the most recent new food i've tried but by far the most memorable recent dish was vietnamese chè (wikipedia article for context). i got four different varieties and the only one i can remember specifically was chè trôi nước, which had a ginger broth and dumplings made of glutinous rice filled with mung beans. they were all really good though! i love that they're like dessert soups, and refreshing, filling, and not to sweet.

I also don't have a linear sense of time! I know I've tried mine before, I just can't remember specifically what new food I've tried. I do have a tendency to forget I've tried something, though XD

Conchas and Persimmons! Yum! That's all... the persimmon was ripe and slightly sweet. The Concha's were by Bimbo and fluffy soft and slightly sweet.

I want to try those! I've seen them, but they're one of the foods that have me like, "Do I actually want to, though?" haha.

I recently tried wet tofu- or fermented tofu (fu ru) I did not like it.... but then again I am sure it didn't help I popped it in my mouth :lol: That's like having a spoonful of miso and deciding if you like it or not. haha So I have to try it out by putting only a little in a recipe.

I tried squid a few days ago! I brought my friend to a sushi place and she ordered it as an appetizer. I was surprised it had the little suckers and everything, lol. And it tasted pretty good, but the skin was kind of tough and I could not get over the whole "I'm eating a tentacle" thing. I'd eat it again someday, though!

Recently I tried peppercinis?? I think it is, or banana peppers in my sandwich. I did not know what they were but they were actually very good, especially when doused in the vinegar they put in there too. I normally don't like sandwiches with a little cronch but I found I actually don't mind it so much anymore.
