Once is enough.

The other day Husband and I went to Costco...hungry.
As you all know, Costco is (usually) a fine place to go with a rumbly in your tummy, as you can (usually) count on a delicious morsel being sampled at the end of every aisle.
But for some reason everything that was being sampled the other day was decidedly UNdelicious -- things like one corn chip smeared with a glob of baby-poo colored hummus; a paper cup full of salsa with a single Frito stuck in it; Cottage Cheese; Coffee (Coffee??); and suspicious looking meatballs that were neither meatball colored or meatball shaped.

So by the time we were checking out, Husband was eyeing the snack stand like a man who'd been incarcerated for a year would eye a hooker.
A pretty one.

Husband: "Wanna split a Chicken Bake?"
Me: "What in holy hell is a Chicken Bake?"
Husband: "Only the most delicious thing you'll ever put in your mouth."
Me:
Husband:
Husband: "Never mind."
Me: "No No! This I've gotta try."

So Husband gets a Chicken Bake, which looks a lot like a big breadstick...until you cut it open.

Me: "Oh, god! What is that brown thing??"
Husband: "I think it's ham."
Me, who detests ham, gagging: "Get it away! Get it away!"
Husband, taking a bite: "You're crazy. I had one of these a few years ago and it was delici---*"
*Insert gagging noises and picture the scene from Big where Tom Hanks tastes caviar for the first time and then tries to remove his tongue.

Needless to say, the Chicken (Ham) Bake went immediately into the trash, and after Husband washed his mouth out with a liter of soda, we started talking about other things that you really only need to experience ONCE in your lifetime.
You know, those things that sound really good at the time, and maybe even for a short while while you're experiencing them, but for a variety of reasons are most definitely not something you'd ever, ever want to experience again in your lifetime.

Here's a few we came up with.
And yes, they all have a story behind them.
Stick around and I just might tell you one or two of them one day.

It's an ongoing list.
What are some things you'd add??
