I've never really cared for figs, but that hasn’t stopped me from planting fig trees this year.

Figs are full of mystery and intrigue. For one thing, it’s a mystery to me why anyone ever created Fig

escargo? probably. I don't like seafood so no thank you.
I can't think of any food or drink that I want to try, I'll try whatever passes me by.

I have never been able to talk myself into trying calamari. Nope... just cannot do it.

I'd like to try Swiss dish called Fondue. I think it's very tasty, I hope in future I'll be able to try it.
