I went through a period where we were tired of throwing out the roach infected food...so we ate with our eyes closed. No thanks.... I shared your prejudice as a child. But then my job took me aboard one of our rich uncle sam's big grey yachts. I was sitting in the wardroom at near midnight yearning for a snack when an officer came in with a nice steaming bowl of soup. Where? Midrats, down on the mess deck. Off I went to get in the line, my mouth literally watering at the soup's scent; but when I got to the big whaddacallit of soup there were a dozen or so roaches swimming in it!! Noting my hesitancy a sailor said "Here, lemme show you. Dip the ladle to the bottom, shake it back and forth, then pull it up quickly!" With that he matched word with deed and handed me a roachless bowl of soup which, acknowledging that I'd been eating out of that same "mess" for days, I promptly ate with great enjoyment. Sorry to tell y'all this but Ms Rosalie's right: almost everything we eat contains insect and/or rodent parts and droppings. |
