HALLO!

So although I brought up the creation of the blog, I have yet to post. UNTIL NOW. And the reason I am posting is because Amy called me out on it, and I know her pimp hand is strong, so I shall not mess with her.

So, I shall take this opportunity to talk about Beans.

Currently, i have a deep, unexplainable fear/ hatred of them. Although I think I may have had them once before, I believe the experience was so awful that I have repressed it. As a child I subsisted on a diet of hot dogs, candy and cantaloupe. Being the picky eater I was, this diet seemed perfectly fine, but now on reflection I'm suprised my body didn't give up on me at some point. After eating my first salad at 16, I thought I was set; but I continue to be haunted by beans. And with this I give you, dear reader, the top five reasons I hate beans:

5. They smell weird. (Read: they don't smell like foods that I actually like)

4. They have a weird texture, mushy on the inside, weird film type layer outside. Completely unnecessary.

3. They typically come in packaging that I have deemed displeasing.

(the one at the bottom is oozing. Gross)

4. The scientific name for beans is "Phaseolus Vulgaris". Because they are vulgar. FACT. Also, they sometimes look like larvae.

(case and point)

5. Farting. Funny in theory, but not after hours of induced bean farts.

However, I will admit, there are some beans that are okay. In fact some of these I consume on a daily basis.

1. Green beans

(I am aware there are little beans inside, i choose to ignore this)

2. Jellybeans. I can't get enough.

NOM NOM NOM

3. Mr. Bean. Seriously, this guy is amazing.

This all being said, I will soon have to face my fear, and eat beans. Hopefully as few as possible. And as unfortunate as this situation is, I hope it will only add to my good character, and not lead to nightmares.
