Number 74. Eat 5 things I've never tried before

I actually forgot about this one, I was at a cookout a few weeks ago with some friends and the host's parents were there. His Dad came around with a plate asking people to try the "steak" of course I did and it was great. After I ate I found out it was venison. I guess the dad always tells people it's steak so that they'll try it without prejudice. Well it worked. I got to try a new food without even knowing it. I really recommend people try it.

I absolutely cannot believe you've never tried venison! (Seeing as you're a bit of a meat lovahhhh) - so juicy! so tender!
