I think I like sour the way some of you like salt. I can in fact handle salt best with sour--we have some "Chinese sweeties" (we're so lyrical with our naming in Jamaica) that are shrunken soured plums with some salt on. Now that's good licking.
Don't worry, we're sure to spot Faith first. She's like this cleavagy slut-bomb walking around 'Ooh, check me out, I'm wicked-cool, I'm five-by-five.'

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

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
shrunken soured plums with some salt on.
Those sound pretty good.

That's pretty much the same thing, ita. Shruken soured plums with possibly more salt on. Typical for tropical regions?

I have some dried salted lemon peel that you might like.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Top five priciest restaurants in the USA.
I'm relieved Masa was #1, because that shit is ridiculous.
Seriously -- $400 for a 30-course Omakase dinner? Yeah, I *love* me some sushi, but that's INSANE.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
$400 for a 30-course Omakase dinner
I can see myself paying it if I had the money. I don't, so it's a moot point, but I can see it.

You could pay me $400 to not eat it! Hell, you wouldn't even have to pay me!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
For $400 I want more than a meal, even a really excellent meal.

Omakase has a way of making me pay the big bucks.
Not that big, but I've dropped some cash on it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
lori: That is awesome. I am almost positive I can get them here, because we have lots of Hispanic foods, but very little Japanese. Except pocky. For some reason I can get pocky at my grocery store. Which I'm not complaining about, mind you, just thinking they could maybe add, I dunno, rice? Or miso?
Anyway. I love sour foods, too. And bitter. And hot.
