Earlier this month my sister Kate published a post about her take on the food that we will be eating for the next month. Asian food. Most people who know me know that I am a very picky eater. By that I mean that I hardly eat anything except white bread products. Because of this I'm probably going to have a very interesting next month. However, there are two glimmers of hope for me. In Asia there are noodles almost everywhere, and I have a new found love for spicy food. Well I say a new found love, but my spice tolerance, while higher than most of my family's, in barely enough to allow me to eat even mild Indian food. Because of this i have to be careful not to order anything that says spicy on it, because as my dad said, "it's probably going to be spicy enough".

On of the things that I have eaten already on this trip was a Chinese soup that we found in a Hawker Center (Which is basically a building with a bunch of food stalls in it). It was a mildly spicy soup with some sort of meat and noodles in it. I was very happy with my choice until I saw something else float around in it. Fish heads. I hate fish. I quickly lost my appetite after that.
Also when we went to a Indian place we found naan (naan is a type of flat bread). Since the naan had
an option to be served with butter, I happily ate some. This increased my mood when I learned that almost all Indian places had naan, and butter. Apart from eating the naan I also had chicken tikka, and tandoori chicken.

Poor Cannon, but this trip will either cure you of picky eating, or starve you right?? I recently discovered I have to be gluten free, and I was especially devastated about the loss of naan from my life. Thankfully I figured out how to make AMAZING gluten free nann on my BBQ outside. Saved my sanity.
