I have been making kefir for the last week, and one of the things to do with it is to ferment it a day with only the kefir grains and sugar water, then a second day with fruit added to make a fizzy, fruit-flavored drink.

Today, I took two large sliced of dehydrated mango and dropped it into the jar to add flavor. I just tasted it and it was very nice.
Liz saw it, and disgusted, said, “What the hell is THAT?”
Without missing a beat, I replied “Beef tongue, and its GREAT!”
I though she was going to gag as I handed her the glass to try it 🙂

FWIW, the girl is game…she believed that it WAS beef tongue floating in a jar that I was storing in the fridge (I have a history of doing odd things around here, so it was a possibility).

She went ahead and tasted it, and promptly spit it out into the sink, STILL thinking it was beef tongue water 🙂

After I wiped the tears from my eyes, I told her the truth…she tasted it again, and said, “I thought it tasted too fruity to be beef tongue”.

Like she’s ever tasted beef tongue 😛
