    It was something like mashed pumpkin. I forget the exact variety.

    I was for dinner at some friend’s place. He gives me a bit of that pumpkin stuff, saying I have to taste it because it turned out so great. It was left-overs from the previous day. I take a spoon and it tastes absolutely rotten. Well, ok. He is trying his best to be an amateur chef, but I do have doubts about some of his culinary judgments. So, I put on the polite face and just eat it.

    After a few spoons, I can’t take it anymore. I say: “Sorry, this tastes absolutely rotten.” He tastes of it, nods and hurries out the room to throw it away. So yeah. I ate spoiled food. I didn’t get sick but I haven’t eaten pumpkin since. The taste really stayed with me.
