I love weird food challenges - even as a little kid I always wanted to be in a pie eating contest (and was)! There are those times where you'll see something on a menu or you'll hear about a food from your crazy stoner friend that really makes you consider trying something you normally wouldn't. Let's go back a few months when our hero and Gangster Tom wandered into what appeared to be a cute little 50's style diner at the end our street. We were warned by Charlie not to do go in here but my friends aren't the most reliable when it comes to things like this. Inside we were bombarded by boxes of food everywhere, decaying booths and handwritten signs for Vienamese foods. We were confused...it was Asian owned but come on. Egg rolls with your breakfast? Still, I saw the sign for an Avocado Milkshake and immediately brushed it off as gross. Out of my mind....until, the Crow and I ventured in one night and I brought it to his attention. "You should try it. You like weird crap like that", he said over the worst grilled cheese sandwich ever (seriously, how do you fuck up grilled cheese)? So, after prompting from the Crow and a horrified look from Tom, I ventured to try the Avocado milkshake. I actually looked somewhat appealing.
I can pretend it it's mint??
I have never tasted anything like this in my life. Not necessarily good but...weird. I didn't think ice cream could not be sweet. It tasted like avocado which was...ok at least until you reached the bottom of the glass there the chunks live!
Say it with me...ewwwww
Verdict - I'm glad I can say I did it...but I never need to again. I'll leave my avocados to my eggs dammit!
