Eating Isn't Always Easy

Now sometimes people come here and love the food. Sometimes they don't. Some folks want only local food, some folks don't want any. Some of it depends on travel experience. Sometimes I've been places and gotten sick then I would eating only deep fried things reasoning nothing could survive a deep frier! Our guys did pretty well, considering all we tried throwing at them.
Every once in a while we wanted to throw in something normal--like McDonalds ... even though most people who eat a Big Mac here say they haven't had one in the USA in years! People always love that drinks here come in their own sack--take that Global Warming!
We had some degree of difficulty getting Tom enough meat. Here there is no such thing as a Triple Cheese or a Double Quarter Pounder, although we did find out BK has Double Whoppers. We also found out that you can get a six egg omelet if you stick with it and explain your request a few times.
We ended up at TGIFriday's but that mostly came from people who live in Asia! Everyone did enjoy it, though.
The most exciting time is when you roll up to someone's house or to a party or wedding. Its like food roulette. Can you eat it? This breakfast went OK. Some rice, some bread, and coffee. Easy!
Other times, like at a wedding we attended, its not so good. Only on the way home did I realize I had eaten lung (I thought it was liver). Yuck.
Under pressure to eat? Check out this awesome move. Nick glances around ... and then dumps his fried chicken onto Tom's plate!!
Check out that smile as he realizes he only needs to eat the oranges since he knows he can throw the rice away. Smooth, very smooth.
