I Just Realized

I just realized that I am sitting in a mostly dark room, eating my stir fry.  This stir fry contains water chestnuts.  I could have put a water chestnut in my mouth and not have noticed until that HORRIBLE crunching sound was heard.  I might have died.  There has never been a food more despised in the history of food than the water chestnut by yours truly.  Let this be a lesson to all:  eat your leftover stir fry with the lights on!

Oh, yes, Lindy! There should not be the sound or feel of CRUNCHing when you are eating soft foods! I hate onions, but even that hatred doesn't compare to water chestnuts! I even shudder at the sound they make when your fork touches them. Ick!!!
