And I think that is some of the coolest thing because it's about community at that point, right? It's about what you can get in the local community and it binds people together differently. And I've also had something similar experience-wise when I was in Puerto Rico.

I was there on an outreach trip and Rice Campoya and Beans, it was the most delicious thing I've ever had in my life because it stewed for, I don't know, 12 hours or something like that. Yes, yeah. But it was more than that because it was about the people who were serving it to me. You know, I knew that they had given their time and their money that they didn't have that much to give to do this.

I was actually expecting Georgie to say something about Japanese food or I was not expecting that at all.

Or what they were eating when they saw the site. I've gotten that quite a few times. And I love it how people get so passionate when they talk about food. And especially all the guests that I've had. I had someone that I didn't expect completely nerd out on pizza on air. Just so excited about the whole process of it. And the making of everything. And the temperature. And the pressure.

And the rest of the people are just thinking, man, I just need to get a pizza pizza. It doesn't matter. I don't care about it. But listening to people get so impassioned by the food that they love makes this more of a joy for me as well on a personal level. I really love people's stories. So I do have a question about the tacos though.

glad that you had a good experience. I had a similar one in Mexico City. I was on a food street tour, actually, and it was the best thing I could have done for my palate. I did the same thing when I've traveled anywhere, getting used to the textures and the flavors so I don't, you know, make a fool out of myself at a table or couldn't navigate chopsticks or something like that.

But I remember thinking authentic Mexican food, and I mean authentic, like not what we do to it here in the States, of course, is some of the most amazing food I've ever had, hands down. And there's some stuff I think about daily to this day, actually.

Exactly. And some of the things I love the most about suit adventures outside of your own comfort zone is when you don't speak the language or you don't speak language well, or you can understand a little bit of it. Situational awareness kicks in usually. And you're kind of having to guess what's on the menu.

And then you end up with this like plethora of amazing food that you've never thought of because you couldn't really read the menu. Don't get me wrong. It's like an adventure. I did something like that in Mexico City. Did not end up with crickets. I thought we were going to. I'm glad we didn't. I think I would have been a little weirded out by it. I'm just not a bug eater.
