my immaturity knows no bounds
I have never tried oysters. They just don't appeal to me.
So tonight when the boyfriend ordered some, he offered one to me. I was skeptical because the consistency and smell seemed unappealing but I tried it.
I must have turned colors. "Swallow it. Please swallow it." I shook my head no frantically. "Please do not spit it out on your plate."
I felt like Tom Hanks in Big eating caviar. I ran from the table to the bathroom to spit it out in a wad of paper towels and rinsed my mouth for 5 minutes.
I told my mom this story and she's like, "And to think you're old enough to HAVE kids."

Re: my immaturity knows no bounds
reminded me of the first time i tried sushi at 16!! couldnt swallow it, just a big bunch of rice and fish puffing my cheeks out. I spit it into a tissue.
i also tried oysters once, and only once

Mmmmnnn, love oysters. Sweet and briny at the same time. Squeeze of lemon or a little mignonette sauce. Delish.

Re: my immaturity knows no bounds
I did the same thing in front of my in-laws the first time I tried clams. Oysters will NOT be on my menu any time soon.

Re: my immaturity knows no bounds
well played.
well played, indeed.
I don't think I would have even made it to the bathroom. Correction, I wouldn't have made it.
I do, however, love clams on a half.

I was waiting for someone to say that.
I'd rather swallow THAT stuff than eat an oyster. Seriously.
