That summer, I decided that if I was going to do this mission thing, I was going to have to start eating stuff and so I just forced myself to try things. I remember really well eating a bean burrito for the first time and thinking, "holy crap! how have I gone so long without this?" It was amazing.
Mashed potatoes and gravy too. Never had them til I was 19 and when it did, there was no turning back.
