Well, it is good to eat a variey of foods...

This meme was floating around at live journal. I posted it there, and then decided it fit here, too!

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
4) Optional extra: Post a comment at www.verygoodtaste.co.uk linking to your results.
