>I agree, literally. I really would eat dirt first. Pickled herring is one of the very few foods that triggers my gagging reflex. It must be something about slimy foods, because cottage cheese is another one.
Slimy? Have you ever actually eaten it? Nothing slimy about it.
How about sashimi or nigiri sushi ?
( Sushi would definitely appear on my 10 ten meals list. )

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
