What the real question should be, is if you can tell the difference between creamy white clam chowder and creamy white man chowder. After all, if the condom was in there you stand the chance that it was a used condom.

This reminds me of the tale told to me by a freind of someone's experience at a Chinese restaurant where she ate Shrimps in lobster sauce and got violently ill afterwards. She saved some of the food to have it looked at (the lawsuit minded) and the analysis came back - semen mixed with the lobster sauce.

Ever since then I rarely have my favorite Chinese dish. UGH.

Feh. I heard a story about slackers in a KFC playing with a condom they had filled with gravy, and it got out of hand and fell into the gravy vat... whoever had mashed potatos and gravy that day had the condom surprise.

Not terribly surprising, just another risk of eating out.

And personally, I prefer my clam chowder a little more on the thick side.

This gives manhatten clam chowder a clear advantage over boston. Of course manhatten would make it more difficult to tell if someone squeezed out a maxipad into your soup.

The moral is, tip well and tip often.

You like eating clam chowder too, huh? I like it almost as much as eating at the Pink Taco Hut. :)

Ugh. I went to the meal hall today, ready to eat everything they had to offer, then I saw a pot of clam chowder and completely lost my appetite.

Did you eat clam chowder before? I thought you couldn't eat anything made with milk.

I'm not lactose intolerant or anything like that, I just can't stand drinking milk by itself. Dairy products or stuff with milk in it is OK (yes, I know it's bizarre).

I understand how you feel. I'm condom intolerant. :P

if it wasn't for the fact that i don't like clam chowder, i'd probably be disgusted. but as it is i find this oddly humorous in an infantile sort of way.

Probably she planted it there. People do stuff like that and it's easier for the companies to settle in a lot of cases.

slightly ot: i actually have a similar problem myself. while i'll gladly eat many dairy produts made with milk, and even drink chocolate milk, i just can't tolerate plain milk on its own. i have no explanation why, but i can't.
