A while ago, I was eating a bowl of SpaghettiOs, when I noticed a small amount of the sauce that had been on the table a minute before. Not one to waste delicious food, I scooped it up with my finger and tasted it. Much to my chagrin, it tasted of blood. Now, the table's surface had been clean beforehand, and I quickly checked to see if I had been tasting a cut on my finger or a mouth injury. I tasted it again, and, yes, blood. So I preformed an experiment. I took a small amount of SpaghettiOs sauce, put it in a bowl, and let it turn cold. When I tasted it, it tasted like blood. SO, SpaghettiOs sauce, when chilled and in small quantities, tastes like blood.
This has led me to conclude that the secret ingredient in SpaghettiOs is people.

I think it's more unsettling that you know what blood tastes like.
-
... Why wouldn't you know how blood tastes? I'm sure everyone has tasted blood sometime in their lives.
-
Thankfully I don't eat Spaghetti-os, or any type of pasta at all.
-
I had some beef jerky once that tasted like blood.

How can one not know what blood tastes like? When one loses a tooth as a child, is there not at least a little bit of blood?
-
Also, factor in things like cuts, getting punched in the mouth, etc. If you've never tasted blood, you must be really sheltered.
-
Your logic is spot on!
-
Blood tastes like pennies.

Copper, people, copper! Besides, smell is linked to taste, which is why I know what ladybugs smell like (ever vaccuum one of those suckers?).
As for Spaghetti-O's, I stopped eating them after I got violently sick after eating them. Of course, I ate many other things that day, and it was probably unrelated, but they're just not that appetizing as it it (I also swore off of Strawberry Shortcake icecream bars at the same time, but I think I've had once since... whenever it was. Maybe about eight or nine years ago).
Also, I tripped and bit my tounge as a kid. Spent what seemed like forever sucking on ice and blood... kinda like salsa, really...

Is it bad if this topic made me hungry for Spaghettios?

And now... Soylent Spaghetti!

Humans don't have copper-based blood.
-
I had a theory that blood tastes the way it does due to trace amounts of things like iron being in it.
-
Exactly.
-
Pennies actually have very little copper in them, anyway.
-
Humans don't have copper-based blood.
I mean it tastes like copper. I'm not that stupid (Vulcans, however... don't they have copper-based blood?).
-
Yes, yes they do.
-
"Why, that green-blooded little vulcan!" ::)

TOO BAD, man! ;(
Spaghetti are good, but if someone doesn't cook them well...Then I think that the cheff must be very lazy, because you prepeare also 3 big pasta dishes in 5 min and they taste good.
But I think that if EVERY dish is not cooked well, nothing tastes good (not only pasta! DX)!

Sapphira can tell you I'm the pickiest of the picky. XD

Would she care to? </rhetoric>
To make this post a bit more relevant, I'll add that I love pasta from anything but a can. For quite a while, I used to eat spaghetti with chopsticks at Hillside Dining Center doused in some Sriracha, a hot sauce originating in Thailand. Recently, however, I have been really busy. I'm almost done with this semester.

Is this why you haven't been in #tmk? Deezer was looking for you last night.

You're too busy to eat?
-LD
-
...Yes. I eat whatever I purchase from the Hillside Market when I find it. Eventually, I become so hungry that I return briefly to Hillside Market to stock up again. Also, your assumption is correct, MaxVance.
In mid-May, however, I pledge my full abilities outside of work to better work.

That's funny, my blood tastes like spaghetti Os!
