   Ditto with oysters...   
   A very sensual delight to the tongue, the taste buds...   
   If you don't like the texture or the flavours and scents, don't eat it.   
      
   For all their harshness, in all the mushrooms and cacti I have eaten, the   
   eating tribulation is clearly a step on the journey.   
   If you circumvent that part, you are missing a significant part of the   
   lesson in my opinion...

   Roughly 30 years ago NatGeo had a picture of a Native American eating   
   peyote, slime drooling down his chin.  The contorted expression on his face   
   mirrored my personal experiences eating peyote... Bordering on a horrifying   
   taste.  Yet it is clearly an important part of the ritual, the journey...
