Nolan the Adventurous Eater

There are two types of eaters at our house... the bold and brave, and the cautious. Jonathan and I belong to the cautious category, Dan and Nolan are bold and brave. Dan tells us about all the odd meats he tries when on business. Jonathan and I tell him "yuck" but Nolan is intrigued. He shares the adventure-eating spirit with his dad. Nolan got into adventure eating in China. He ate garlic greens (which even I thought were really good), seaweed, jellyfish, Peking duck, and "sheep". Yes, he counts "sheep" as an odd food (most people call it lamb...). Dan and Nolan went out to lunch the other day to a place called "International Buffet". There, Nolan proudly added a new food to his "unique foods repertoire"- squid. Way to go- I won't touch squid with a ten food pole (mainly because I am a vegetarian, but also because it is seafood and it's rubbery). So Nolan once again has proved that he is braver than his mom and isn't afraid of trying new and odd foods!
