Once,
(exactly ONCE, lol) the chef at my favorite sushi bar, as a favor, prepared baby Abalone
sashimi for me.
Never, in my entire life, have I suffered a dish so. It was as though it had "Goodyear" stamped on it, and no amount of chewing was gonna do any good. YEEEESH...talk about some serious RUBBER! I got it all down though.
So now I think rubber tastes like Abalone.
Or vice-versa...
