our burgers in school were ok, even if they were part soy. this was the 70s and 80s though, before school lunches became outsourced profit centers for greedy corporations. school lunches in general were pretty good.. and at college after, even better. was like going to a gourmet all-you-can-eat buffet for every meal (the 'freshman 15' was very real back then).

if I remember right, I could not palate it, gagged too many times, gave up, tossed it out, just ate the snickers i'd also bought with it.

And pickles, onion,lettuce, and tomato.

Nope.

I'm just a dude, that knows I'm that dude, acting just like that dude would.

Exactly!

When you know how bad bad can be... good is better than it was, you respect it more, don't take it for granted.
