I completed my first goal on the first day of the challenge. On Wednesday, April 30th, I ate everything that was given to me on an unappetizing plate - #94. Technically, I didn't eat everything, but I did try everything. When I came up with this one, I imagined being given a meal that I wouldn't normally eat and eating it anyway. What happened on Wednesday was that four friends who know exactly what I will not eat - Lana, McFadden, Clarke, and Philip - made me a ginormous plate full of food. I was given a cheese and peppers quesadilla with sour cream and salsa, lentils, tofu, an egg with mayo, cheese fries, steamed vegetables, salad with olives and ranch dressing. None of these are foods I would ever choose for myself. I started eating, needing to chase with rootbeer and/or beef. I gagged on nearly everything and eventually needed to be blindfolded so I wasn't too psyched out to continue eating. After more than an hour, having tried everything on the plate and eaten most of it, I put my fork (and the blindfold) down. I'll post a picture or two when I get McFadden to send them to me.
