Today’s adventure was a real toughie for me. Truth be known, I’m going to have to set up a new blog category for this type of challenge . The category will be called “Near Death Experiences”.

Watch me as I taste the vegetable equivalent of poorly prepared fugu (a Japanese puffer fish delicacy).

As is the case with fugu , I am now convinced that domestic preparation of this vegetable  may lead to accidental death.

This was the first time I tasted this vegetable. It will also be the last time. I count myself lucky to have survived.

I am going outside  and I may be some time 🙂
