So last night, we went out to eat at a friend's house. They put together an aluminum tray of chick peas, rice, some kinda sauce, and chicken legs. The chicken legs had the bones and tendons in them and everything.
Now, lemme ask you - Do you feel alright with having obvious gristle and bones just sitting in your food like that? Don't you pick the meat off the bones before you eat it? It's like the chick peas and rice were just a garnish for the chicken.
When I get some chicken still on the bone, the first thing I do is separate all of the meat from it. I won't put my mouth anywhere near that thing because I might take into my mouth something with the consistency of a rubber band or year-old milk that serves as a different texture than the actual chicken meat that we're supposed to be eating.
So, how much can you tolerate gristle or bones in your food? Does the thought of it make you vomit even just thinking about it? Or do you not even acknowledge the existence of any odd textures in your mouth while eating off a bone? Are you one of those folks that can find a bone in your mouth and just spit it out and keep going, or is the entire meal ruined now because you can't stop thinking about it while trying not to throw up?
