Bacon

I'm a picky eater. I do my best to try new things, and I always tell people to not cook specifically for me. Even if I don't like the main dish, I will eat a little, and then fill up on sides.

Bacon is one thing that everyone makes fun of me for not liking. Especially at work, since everyone likes bacon on their pizza!

I try bacon more often than any other food, mostly because I want to like it. I want to like other normal foods, like steak or mushrooms, but no matter how many times I try it, I usually just don't like it.

Well, tonight I made breakfast for dinner. We had my breakfast scramble, fried potatoes, eggs, cheese, and my special blend of seasoning. I made some bacon for the Hubby. I like the smell of bacon, and tonight I decided it smelled extra good, and I was going to try it again.

I tried a small piece in front of the Hubby, and his jaw almost hit the floor when I said, "It's not bad this time." I portioned our dinner onto our plates, and he was shocked when I placed a few small pieces of bacon on my plate.

When we finished eating, he told me he was going to have to be over-protective of his bacon now. It's not like I'm in love with bacon, and want to eat it all the time now, but it's nice to know I can occasionally eat another "normal" food!
