Go to any bodega or hispanic supermarket...you will find Coca-Cola bottles from across the Rio Grande. Hell, I've even bought Coca-Cola made in HONDURAS!

The big thing is that it's made with cane sugar, not High Fructose Corn Syrup. AND it's in a glass bottle. Can beat that combination.

...and while you're there, pick me up a green candle to light to St. Jude or a blue one for the Virgin of Guadalupe.

I don't live in Brentwood aka Little El Salvador no mo. I moved out the hood into the posh section of LI. I'm a Port Jeff Station lady now, but I'll swing by the B-Wood bodega and grab us a case of Mexican Coca-Colas and that green or blue candle...if I can't find either of those, u want a red one? They always got the red ones.

[Edited 9/4/12 20:02pm]

Yes, you DID mention Pt. Jeff!

I'm good though...now that I'm back in Westbury (Nassau's Little El Salvador) I can get Mexican Coke on a whim. How's about I bring you some Mexican Coke now that you're all gentrified and shyte.

(still talking soda, right?)

Okay, after reading your guys lists, I am not as picky eater as I thought I was.

I don't like artichokes, I've tried to, but I don't like them. I have special taste buds then can tell immediately if there is artichokes in any food.

Not a huge fan of deep fried foods. I do love french Fries, on occasion a breaded chicken/fish/shrimp are okay-but not all the time. It's not that I hate it-it's just does nothing for me-so why eat it?Basically a deep fryer would go to waste at my house.

Do not like liver.

Not a big red meat eater. But I do enjoy a good steak or hamburger.

Not a fan of cream sauces. I love wine based sauces.

So, to sum up liver and artichokes are out.

Our Costco carries the Mexican coco-cola in the bottle.

Actually there are people who, genetically, will taste cilantro as "soap".

To me it used to smell like a sour old dish cloth, but that has totally changed, so weird!

Sweetie's and my favorite Mexican place in Madison has Mexican Coca-Cola - and I'm pretty sure it's available at the grocery store where I bought some strawberry Jarritos for him.

I love the tamarind flavored Jarritos.

I'm never dining out with any of you. You are all a bunch of weirdos.

I know people who don't drink a drop of their drink until AFTER they finish their meal.

I usually do this. I'm also told I'm a "fast" eater. Whatevs.

i guess my peculiarity is that i eat everything. i've never come across anything

that totally grosses me out.

maybe because our parents taught me and my brother to just eat what people

serve you and not make a fuzz or ask silly questions or act squeemish.

i guess it worked since i like almost everything. there may be a few things i'm

not very keen on and wouldn't make for myself, at home. but when offered a

dish at a friend's home, i'll gladly eat anything.

only product i've come across in 34 years that i was actually unable to swallow

was soy cheese. i only eat soy, because i'm intolerant to dairy (like the taste tho)

but soy cheese was like a nightmare in your mouth. perhaps i just had a bad

variety,so i might have to try another type. (if anyone here can recommend a

good soy cheese product, i'm all ears)

but when cooked properly, i'd eat pretty much anything. i'm not one of those

people with a bin liner stomach. i do enjoy food incredibly much. i just like to

try everything for taste or texture etc. nothing is too weird to try if it's part of

people's diet somewhere on earth.

a very off putting thing is people, grown people, who act like children and start

to yell when they don't want or like something on their plate. that's just kind of

incomprehensible to me.

but then again, my mom fed me pickled herring and orange rinds when i wasn't

even off the tit yet. so what do i know

If I'm a guest at someone's house I generally try to be polite and eat what is served but there are certain things I know I will not be able to stomach. For example, mushrooms or tofu in something I could do; lobster I really think I would throw up if I tried to eat it.

When I was in kindergarten, we were not allowed to go out for recess after lunch unless we had taken at least one bite of everything on our plates. One day, we were served creamed green beans. I knew I did not like them. I told the teacher. She said, "Don't be silly." I reiterated that I did not like them. She made me eat them anyway. I gagged on them and spit them out, right on her jacket. She was horrified. I said, "I told you I don't like them." )I can't say I care for creamed green beans as an adult, but I would be able to eat them.) However, I gag at the sight/smell of dog shit on the sidewalk sometimes so I know that if I had to eat something like calamari or lobster, it wouldn't end well. Gagging on food as an adult is worse than politely saying you don't care for it, imo.

wait, did you just compare lobster and calamari to dogshit?

seriously tho, i agree with you that it's probably better to just decline something than to

have to force it down and feel sick. i wouldn't want anybody to feel sick because i forced

them to eat something at my house, i would never do that.

i might make fun of you or secretly hate you for the rest of the meal tho

oreo cookies with skippy peanut butter and a glass of almond milk. (the peanut butter makes the cream taste yummy!

chocolate covered ritz crackers mmmmmmmmmmm!

baked potatoes with shredded cheese topped with mild salsa.

a slice of hot cornbread with mild green taco sauce poured lightly over the top.

home made toasted garlic bread. topped with sauteed mushrooms and green onions

peculiar? i dunno , but they all taste so good to my tastebuds.

Oh, you would love eating out with me and a friend of mine. Every time he comes over, he shows me pictures in his cell phone of all the dicks he's had lately. I can't believe these men let him take these pictures but they do. Anyway, once we were eating lunch in a small Mexican restaurant and the tables were so close they were elbow to elbow. He was showing me the pictures in his phone of some greaaaaat big ole lonnnnng black dicks. When we look up, there's two older white women with their mouths wide open.

Hotdogs have always grossed me out. Anything with that type of sausages ("weeners") really.

I like shellfish, shrimps and would shove pretty much any crustacean into my mouth, but there's only certain type of fish that I like (tuna, salmon + a few others).

I don't understand why people want ham on their pizza. Not to mention ground beef on it is the most boring thing you can eat.

No, I compared my reaction to both as being similar -- gagging.
