I only ate cheese and white bread/etc. at that point in my life.

The waiter smiled when he set my plate down....

My tastes have grown a lot since then.

We sold that stuff in the cold cuts section. I hated to even catch it as it came off the slicer. Who puts pig snouts (among other things) in jello? And then eats it.

... watching some old guy eat slices of fat out of a can.

I traveled with my brother and his wife to Hershey PA years ago, among other places, and we stopped to visit her elderly uncle in Western PA along the way.

Her uncle was sitting on a porch as he kept sticking a fork into the can and eating small slabs of white stuff from it. He seemed to love it, so I asked what he was eating. It was some kind of raw pork fat! He offered me some, but I politely declined while thinking:
