Lettuce good.

Incidentally, I bloody hate tomatoes. Tomato ketchup: yes. Tomatoes: no. They are vile and disgusting: like biting into an eyeball. Bleugh!

When European people first discovered tomatoes in South America, they presumed they were poisonous and grew them only because they were nice to look at. I knew I'd be able to offload that useless fact sooner or later...

Alex, as I know the story from Latin class, there were poisonous Tomato-relatives native to Europe, and that's why they weren't to be trusted.
Also, I too couldn't stand Tomatos, until just a few years back when I decided they were yummy. I also couldn't stand mushrooms in the past, but now I think they are delicious.

I don't mind the flavour of tomatoes, but I dislike their texture. Except for the little baby tomatoes -- those are pop-in-your-mouth delicious!

Cherry Tomatoes are awesome in salads. I also like chopping them up for use in omelettes.
And thinice, stfu. Fungus is good for you! Just ask Mario.

It seems tomatoes are a relative of nightshade which is poisonous. But obviously the native Americans didn't eat the tomatoes either, or the Europeans would have seen that they were OK... so I don't know why the natives thought they were harmful too... :\

That's exactly what I think about mushrooms. They're all rubbery, thought they tastes nice.

STOP NOW.
Seriously, though, outside of Mario I can't stand fungus either. Eugh. Don't mind Black Pudding though: never have such questionable ingredients come together to form something so tasty. Yay.

Alex, you are so unlike me I am inclined to suggest you are infact my antimatter opposite and were we ever to meet the Universe would implode.
Black pudding rocks.

I conceded a few points on Halo, but I'm not budging an inch on black pudding...

Black pudding always seemed to me to be one of those things that could be very delicious as long as I didn't know what it was.
Like the time I was quite enjoying a meal at a Pakistani buffet, and made the mistake of asking what I was eating. :/
So, what does Black Pudding taste like, anyways?

It tastes like nothing on Earth: there's simply nothing to compare it too so I can only say that it *doesn't* taste like charcoal, pork, cabbages or tomatoes.

The human mind can be a frightening thing... imagine, someone actually once thought to themselves "why don't I take a length of fresh slimy pig intestine, right, fill it with blood and miscellaneous other undesriable objects, let it congeal into what can only be described as a very large scab, and then... eat it!"
The words, I think you'll agree, of an utter psychopath. The only people who would want to eat something like that would be vampires or the seriously mentally deranged. I don't know which of those describes Interference best, but I (and I hope most other people) would sooner scrape dead hedgehogs off the road for sustenance than stoop to black pudding.

Well, Alex, you did just say them.
And the seriously mentally deranged usually stoop to eating their own excrement. Black pudding is reserved for the English Breakfast enthusiast who bloody hates fried toamtoes.

I didn't say it, I was speculating on a fictional quote from the inventor of black pudding, whoever it was! And how dare you sully the good name of the English breakfast by including black pudding therein!
