Slimy, Green, Healthy?

Texture is everything to me. I love things that you can bite into without chewing, stuff like Starbursts and chocolates. Gummy worms and gummy bears take a back seat to chewy cookies and chewy chewies. Wookies not included. Gummy bears are fine but damn, feels like chewing fleshy tendon.

It’s lunch time and I don’t feel like going out. I get my ass up and run downstairs (to our not so amazing cafeteria) and pick up some grilled chicken, okra and rice. Okra? Haven’t had that in a while. Slimy. Like I said, texture is everything to me and this falls under the “gummy” category. But you know, I’ll eat it if it’s good for me. I should check. Not everything green is good.

Okra: Green and Slimy

But really now, is okra good for me? A quick Google brought me to this awesome website: NutritionData. Simple searching provided me with a simple fact that okra is a healthy veggie (I think I like hearing myself say OWE-KRUH). Moral of the story: I learned how to put pictures in my blog. NutritionData is pretty awesome, I highly recommend it.
