Search for Sardines

So for a Halloween party I threw a few years ago, we played a game. Maybe you've played it...you roll a dice. Depending on the number you get, you have to eat something, even is good, odd is bad. Your time is added to your team's time and the point is to have the lowest time after the food has run out.

Anyway, one of the things we had were sardines. Now, you're probably thinking "Nasty! Sardines are gross!" Well, they aren't actually. They just smell nasty, and they're really salty, other than that, they're just little fish. So I told Morgan about this game, and she and I have decided to go on a quest. She has never had a sardine, so we decided to get some and try it. Brooke was not happy when we started it, so we're going to do it when she's not around now =).

Anyway, so we got these sardines, and we tried them...and they weren't sardines. Sardines have apparently gone "gourmet" or something, because these ones definitely were actual fish fillets. They fell apart when we tried eating them: we had to eat them with a fork. They tasted like salty tuna fish. So it has become our quest to find "actual" sardines.

Down the street, there is a little convenience store that has "Kipper Fillets" or something like that. So we got those and tried them next...no cigar. They still tasted like salty tuna...and I've decided that sardines in oil are not very good...

So that's where we are in our quest. I'll keep you posted on how it goes from here!
