The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I will get cheddar then. Limes are already on the list.

I can't eat omelette, really at all. Oh, wait, I tell a lie, I can eat it mixed with chilli and soy sauce and spread on fried noodles or rice. Quiche I can do, but only if it's jam-packed with things not egg. Fried eggs are the worst. I can barely look at them without losing food.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Worse than soft-boiled? Actually, hard-boiled wins for me since they smell the most. I can't tell that smell from the smell of rotten eggs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

BLT's: are not clubs. But I like them plus cheese, minus tomato.

OK, you've already admitted to liking BLCs, really. That's fair. I love BATs -- no lettuce, plus avocado. Avocado and bacon are such a great fat combo -- smooth and crunch together and yum.

In non-food news: People who don't like Colbert, because of the yelling -- have you watched past the open? Because he's always yelling at you in the beginning, but not so much after that.

Yup. It's the texture of the whites. Looking at it reminds me of feeling it in my mouth and that's... not good. I can't see it in the shell. I don't like the smell of eggs, but it's definitely not the main turn-off. Though I can see how the good egg smell and bad egg smell are similar.

There's something about how liquid the yolks are, there in a just-opened soft-boiled egg, and the just-gelledness of the whites. Appalling. I can still taste the last one I tried to eat, about thirty years ago. Not the white, because I didn't get that far--I've been told that most of what I dislike is in the yolk, and I did in fact once try an eggwhite omelette (pepper applied post-cooking), but although hetter, it wasn't enough.

This makes me think about omelette sexuality.

I don't think I've ever been near enough a soft-boiled egg to try the yolk. Just the idea of it repulses me enough. Hard boiled yolks I can do, but then it comes up so rarely that it's not really an issue. I probably haven't had one since I was young enough that my parents could still force me to eat things.
