On my way down to my grandparents' house for Easter dinner yesterday, I stopped to get gas and something to snack upon. These were a BIG mistake:
They were not expired, but they tasted stale. After the first one, I was pretty disappointed, but for some reason, I had that reaction where there's some really horrible train wreck, but you can't bear to look away. I just kept eating them. And then I realized that they tasted familiar, so I had to eat a couple more. They tasted like soggy lettuce and bad sour cream. And then it hit me!!
About a year and a half ago, after I had my jaw surgery and had to be on a liquid diet for two months, my surgeon told me that a lot of his patients just pureed normal foods, like steak and pizza. I, for one, thought that sounded really disgusting. But, after a month and a half of nothing but soup, yogurt, mashed potatoes and discovering that I could just SWALLOW macaroni salad, I needed something else.
So one night I went to Taco Bell (gross, I know) and got a supreme burrito, figuring most of the stuff in it is pretty mushy anyway; I just needed to give it a quick pulse in the blender to smooth it out, because I really COULD NOT chew. So I got the burrito home and squooshed the innards out into the blender and just pureed it a bit.
I poured it (yes, I poured the burrito) into a bowl and got a couple spoonfuls. It was horrible! You would think that since it's all the same things, it wouldn't be bad, but the texture of it was absolutely revolting. I thought I was going to vomit.
That is what these chips tasted like! Like the nasty pureed burrito!!!
So I got to my g-parents' and I was talking to my brother and all I had to do was mention the chips and he's like "DUDE THOSE ARE NASTY! Don't get the popper ones either!"
Jalepeno popper chips?! Thank god he told me, because I seriously would have bought them!
