Okay, so maybe the title is slightly misleading, but here's an interesting little food meme. And I do love my food. There are some things I may not have counted because I cannot remember consciously eating them, i.e., they may have been "stealth ingredients" in some dish. And I'm not crossing anything out, because I believe I should at least try something before condemning it.
