    A first in my life

    Until last night, I've never eaten a sandwich, burger, or anything else with lettuce on it. I always thought of it as a vile weed. Whenever a restaurant accidentally put lettuce on my sandwich/burger I couldn't eat it. Even if I took the lettuce off I could still taste it. I never understood how anyone could ruin their food by putting lettuce on it. I've also never eaten a sandwich with tomato(es) on it.

    Last night between softball games I went to Sonic for dinner. I was in the mood for something different; and something not-greasy, which is hard to find at Sonic. They had a picture of a BLT sandwich and it didn't look all that bad. So I ordered it.

    It wasn't so bad. I kinda liked it. The fact that I ordered it on purpose (rather than the lettuce or tomato being their mistake) made a big difference. I was expecting to taste lettuce and tomato so the odd taste & texture weren't a surprise.

    Of course, I ordered it without mayonnaise -- nothing in the world could get me to eat that stuff. I can tolerate lettuce & tomatoes (sometimes), but mayonnaise is pure evil.
