Welcome to Thorny Tomato! I love to eat, and I love to cook, so I have decided to mix it all up and dish it out as a delicious little blog. Speaking of delicious, how come we don’t all like the same food? Some of us clearly prefer their cake, while others would rather dine on something more…shall we say, earthy. What is it with people loving to suck on raw oysters, nibble on mold encrusted cheeses, and get their hands dirty on greasy chicken wings? Sound all finger licking good to you? Then why are ant eggs, dog meat, sheep eyes, or tarantulas so hard to stomach? Paradoxical. To see what pushes people’s yuck buttons, check out this poll. Here’s what pushes my yuck button…Bon appetit!
