We went to eat sushi every friday with some friends so the guy that owns little tokyo got to know us really well. He would give us new stuff to try. I knew that I had to eat whatever he made for us or I would offend him. Many times it took everything I had to swallow some of that stuff. And I like oysters so its not like I have a problem eating slimey stuff. Its when it has eyes and it talks back to you that I have issues with.
