I can't eat normal food. just another side affect of my condition. my tongue operates... differently than yours. this condition causes normal human food to taste utterly vile, and disgusting. that doesn't mean I don't eat, however. I'm an anthropophagi. in other words, the only dish capable of offering me sustenance is human flesh, and oh man is it delicious. it's not that hard to blend in; humans are very nutritious and one feeding can keep me going for around a month, allowing me to keep a low profile. I live among the general population while keeping steady paychecks, and a small circle of friends. one day my friend Seth calls me for a ride to the mechanic to pick up his car that he dropped off. on our way to the mechanics, Seth notices a taco truck that has set up on the side of a street in town, and insists that I pull over. I stop and he orders a couple of beef tacos from a gruff looking man. after a couple minutes of his chewing and smacking he tells me I have to try a bite. It's been a while since I've last eaten, and I'm not looking forward to being sick from nasty food, but Seth's persistent and I snatch up a taco to shut him up. My mouth waters as I lift the taco to my lips. I bite. and oh man, is it ddelicious.
