How did people ever start eating mushrooms? They seem creepy. Was somebody one day practically starving and decide to just try one, and then showed other people they taste, um, okay or good or whatever people that like mushrooms think? I can see trying a mushroom long before eating a crab or lobster. [Shudder] Crabs and lobsters look like water bugs. Ick. And although I love them - who was crazy enough to try the first oyster?!? Lobster was actually considered sub par food for a longtime and fed to servants and prisoners....so yeah it looks like a sea cockroach but tastes delicious.

My mother refused to eat crabs or lobsters...she called them water spiders, and she don't eat no spiders!
When two planes almost collide, why do they call it a "near miss"? It's clearly a "near hit".
