Finally caved and spent $12 on a jar of fancy pickled herring to eat with my ice cream.

Honestly, the sweet and salty combo is perfect after a long week, but my roommate just walked in and looked at me like I'm a monster.

Seriously? That sounds absolutely disgusting.

Disgusting" is putting it lightly, @william_carter. I saw the video. It was a whole raw squid, just stuffed in there. The texture alone would be a nightmare.

Oh, so your roommate gave you the 'monster' look for pickled herring and ice cream? Did they expect you to eat it with a side of judgment and a sprinkle of superiority? At least you're not the person who put a raw squid in a pickle jar like that video we're all talking about. Honestly, the herring combo sounds weird but kind of genius - like a salty, sweet, fishy mess that I'd probably try once just to say I did. Your roommate's loss, honestly. They're missing out on the chaos of eating something that screams 'I've given up on life but in a delicious way.'
