food for fuel and hungry eating delicious

I used to be a very picky eater, but over the years I've become more open to trying new dietary options. Foods that I never would have touched 6 years ago that are a major part of my diet now:

1. Chipotle (~2001)
   
2. Chinese food (~2003)
   
3. Sushi (~2007)
   

I first tried Chipotle some time in my junior year of college. I remember that it was a deal with Erm that I'd eat a burrito if he would listen to some kind of goofy music, but I can't remember what it was. Maybe Wesley Willis or Tenacious D. Whatever it was, in retrospect it is obvious that we both were ridiculous in our prior refusals.

I don't remember exactly when I first started eating Chinese food, but now I couldn't live without Kung Pao. It might have had something to do with living with Jeff when his mother and aunt bought a Chinese restaurant. Actually it might have been randomly meeting up with people at Panda Express before seeing The Two Towers in Bethesda.

Sushi is my new obsession. I don't exactly know how it started, but it was within the last month and now I can't stop eating it. I still know very little about it, and I'm not even sure exactly what I'm eating, but I do know that raw fish wrapped up with rice in a sloppy cylinder is damn tasty.

Other prominent food items that I still avoid:

• coffee (although I recently drank some kind of frozen sweet beverage from Starbucks that was tasty)
• fungus
• beans
