1. He used to sit at the dinner table for hours, engaged in a battle of wills as his mother tried to force him to eat his eggplant. But trying to chew that slimy-firm-mushy-seedy stuff was just gross, and it tasted like grown-up's aspirin on his tongue. No way. Even some thirty years later, when Lou had tried to get him to order eggplant parmesan at the family-style restaurant he'd recommended for the team dinner, Jack had stuck with ravioli ( ... )

You know, number five is heartbreaking and all, but it was number four that made me wince.

1) that brown leafy stuff on pt8-398. he didn't care what sam and daniel said about it, it tasted like that really pink bubble gum his 8th grade girlfriend was always chewing.

2) cole robbie. hey, it's a pain in the neck to prepare, and it gets mushy really fast. the only thing it's good for is watching sam and teal'c compete for how far they can throw the stuff.

3) raw corn. it's just...well, enough said.

4) that mixture of sludge they serve in the commissary every thursday. daniel and sam have been trying to figure out what's in that for years with no luck. jack knows it's probably not even vegetables. even teal'c won't touch the stuff.

5) peas. because they were in the MRE he ate before he had to leave daniel behind on that damn goa'uld mother ship. even after all these years he can't eat them without smelling burned flesh and tasting death.

Hmm. Raw corn has always looked good to me, though I admit I've never tried it.

Poor Jack. I'd hate to give up peas, even for Daniel.

um....raw corn might be problematic for some folks. er, potential tmi here. ;)

and oh jack...sometimes i think of him living with the things that have happened over the years and think that he needs to be closer to his team.

I didn't know that about raw corn -- what a bummer! It's really delicious, a lot sweeter than after it's been cooked.

i'm sure that daniel would have lots of fun digusing them as something else and seeing if jack would admit to liking them? ;)

Five Vegetables Jack O’Neill Will Never Eat Again

1. Those damn, bizarre zucchini-like things from P23-405. They were the main staple of the natives. Everybody had to exchange slices of the thing, eatting the slice received from each person, at every greeting, every single time, all damn day long. SG-1 got the runs so bad, no one dared walk to the gate. Even Teal’c succumbed, so they had to wait for Hammond to radio them to ask for an extension. Twice ( ... )

bwahaha! oh number 4.....:::faints laughing::: and five fits perfectly with it.

and i love this: "Teal’c merely sat staring at their campfire, with a little smile. He and Daniel spend a good part of the night trying to get a reaction out of him."

coffee is the good stuff. ;)
