well that is your decision I just want you to know that I am here to help you when you decide to post a topic or discussion that is biblical to ensure it is respected. Now I may not agree with it or I may but I could be wrong now that is something you do not hear to much in here
Why not? I deserved it probably more than anyone else did. I was baptized 37 years ago, and I still haven't learned how not to be vindictive, and retaliate.
What scares me is I think I've eaten something that looks like that some time in my life. Whatever is in my memories, it wasn't horrible tasting, but it wasn't mmm-mmm-more-please either.
One of Dad's oddities is he kept pushing our eating limits. We had to finish our dinner, but dinner could be frog legs, snapper soup (turtle, not fish), oysters, clams, mussels, rabbit, squirrel, deer, wild turkey (yuk), quail, pheasants, puffer fish, croakers, bass, perch, pike, (yeah you've probably had pike, but did you know if you pickle it, the bones dissolve? lol), weakfish, bluefish, rock bass, sunnies (yummy), fishhead stew, and eel. He caught all those things, and yet the two times I didn't have to finish my dinner were fishhead stew ("the thickener is the eyeballs") and fried freshwater eel. AND, only because he couldn't stomach them either. lol (If you ever want to know what it's like to try and eat a bicycle tire, I bet I could still get Dad to fry up some eel for you. I'm not sure the staff in his dementia ward would let him from the smell, but he remembers stuff like how to cook. )
That gave room for trying snails and kangaroo tail soup in my teen years. (I still wonder if that kangaroo tail wasn't just beef, but my little brother's after-school babysitter fed him soup every day, and that was the only soup that wasn't finished, so I think she could tell the difference.)
Sad part is I grew up to be anything but a picky-eater, and now, all these years later, my allergies, intolerances and IBS doesn't allow for most of the things I really do like. (I miss ice cream and cheesecake, even if I always thought cheesecake was too sweet.) I've become such a picky eater, it's hard for me to accept an invite to dinner. I was raised to eat everything on my plate, after all. lol
Eeeeewwww okay I'll take the algae.
Although the frog legs were tasty but only because I thought it was chicken since I couldn't read French and thought: my these are tiny chickens!
Tapioca? If that's what it is, next time you make a pie, add some in with the fruit and sugar. It helps turn the fruit juice into a thickened syrup. I bet you'll never let another parrot eat it after that.
(Then again? Are those cranberries the parrots are eating? I'd have to have a lot of cranberries to waste some on birds. lol)
