Another reason why my husband is a dork

So, Jason's been eating this cereal lately, Toasted Honey Crunch, and he really likes it and keeps going on about how we need to have it always in stock. And I'm eating it and it tastes good but I say to him, "I'm surprised you like this so much. It's got quite a strong taste of coconut." And he's always saying how much he can't stand coconut. And he says, "No it doesn't! That's honey!" and I said, "Well there's a honey taste but there's a coconut taste too, very much in fact." He continued to deny this, saying it was just Granola flavor, but I continued to very much taste coconut, and in fact I swear I SEE coconut in the little granola bunches. So then I go to the cereal box and read the ingredients and listed RIGHT AFTER HONEY (which is in the TITLE of the cereal for goodness sakes) is COCONUT!

I don't know if he honestly doesn't realize that that's the taste of coconut, or if he's convinced himself it isn't, like he's convinced himself that the green things in Italian Wedding Soup are parsley.

Anyway, have a nice day!

ROFL

Now if I could only get Sean to eat mushrooms and pretend that they're something else. I guess the problem is that mushrooms don't really resemble anything more appetizing. Actually, the only thing I can think that MIGHT resemble a cooked mushroom is...escargot. Blech.

Darn it, now _I_ don't like mushrooms anymore...

What are they really, then?

um... parsley. Really.

No, they're spinach, but around here it's sort of become everyone's thing to INSIST that it's parsley... I think even my family does it now too,
