I will defend anyone’s right not to try something because they think they won’t like it. There are lots of things out there and nobody has time to experience all of them.

And then there is Neil Gaiman who has a seriously poor reaction to msg, which makes him ill (hyper, headache, nausea) even when he does not know that he has eaten it. My friend Gytha ditto.
The msg in mushrooms is metabolised differently from processed fermented msg, by the way – as is the msg in breast milk.

Well, at that moment beaks and claws were on my mind. I was just about to post that anyone thinking of getting overly familiar with a chook should be warned that they come pretty well armed, as a number of crows, rats and mice discovered, usually very briefly.
Roosters can be very protective - I have the tetanus jabs to prove it…
