This creamy beverage has been my arch nemesis my entire life - honestly! Year after year my family insisted that I have never tried it, so each Christmas I was forced to try a sip, only to prove time and time again that I do not like it!

This year, I was feeling all grown up and so I decided to try some of my own free will (it was inevitable, and I decided to get it over with early on in the holiday season). It took me a moment to get over that something chickeny or eggy was in the carton with the milk, but Terrell poured a glass and I had a sip. You see, I have recently started to enjoy the occasional glass of 2% milk, and so I though perhaps my change of heart would include 'nog as well (despite the "egg" factor).
My first thought was "hmm...creamy" which quickly changed to yuck. I am not sure what it is, but I don't like whatever is happening in the middle/end of egg nog's taste - is it black liquorice? Some weird and un-enjoyable taste hit my tongue and stayed in my mouth until I chugged a glass of water. Ick.
VERDICT: It's (still) offical. I DO NOT LIKE EGG NOG!

Next year we'll try to remember that you HAVE tried egg nog, at least once! :)
ReplyDeleteNo way, I think this post will be mysteriously "disappeared" for tradition's sake!
ReplyDeleteI will vouch for it! Let it be known that BOTH Janna and I have tried egg nog and never have to try it again.
