Lost in translation.
Ramen noodle soup for me. Whenever I am "American food out", a bowl of steamy Ramen noodle soup can always put my stomach at ease. I remember 3 months after I came to America, mk took me to northern Michigan, where we spent an entire week in a cottage with his family. Three days past by, I started freaking out with the overload of pork roast, beef roast, bacon and so on, since that was the first time I haven't touched Chinese food for days. Not to mention that I am a borderline vegetarian since I don't like meat too much. So we ran to Walmart and bought some instant noodle, that saved my life. After that I am good with pork roast for another 3 days. Now I refuse to co-habitate with them without the instant noodle in my suitcase. It's interesting how our palates evolve, now I can have American food for a long time without a melt-down. I actually enjoy a lot of them now, still not the meaty stuff too much.
Hmmm, that's a strange concept. But I've learned not to impose my own bias against any strange ideas when it comes to food, quite often they are the ones that shockingly please your taste buds.One time I had some pickled shrimp, and pickled stawberries at a local restaurant. I frowned upon the concept before I tried them, but they were abosolutly delicious!! I will give this a try.
Thanks, NotPhil! mk bought bacon yesterday. He is excited to try it, and I am excited to eat it. We'll let you know how it turns out.
I am very impressed. It has a very good dynamic. The background music is perfect. I am a fan now.
