There's this battle between wanting to try something new, and not wanting to end up being disappointed.

Actually I LIKE that texture!! When it's smoked, salted, or in sushi (if it's good sushi), it doesn't have that fresh out of the ocean fishy smell. My preference is eating the salted or smoked fish with potatoes actually. Though onions do add some zip. However I must say that I grew up eating such stuff, so maybe that's why I like it. Sushi i was hesitant to try until my sister made me try one of her salmon sushi pieces in college. The first one was weird, but after the 2nd one, I was hooked!
lol same re: salmon, cooked salmon makes me queasy. Give me raw sashimi grade salmon any day!
It's the Burger Joint Burger!!!
oh, Lobo's gonna be all over that one!

I feel like each one gets stuck in their own rut that is way different from each other. The SLIs get stuck in a rut of hedonism, the IEEs get stuck in a rut of being too busy and having too much on their minds to just relax and have fun.
I feel like both sort of work to pull each other out into a happy medium.

Mirror here. Depends on my mood. I usually stick to what I know but there are spurts where I just want to try something different. What I enjoy doing with friends, though, is restaurant hopping.
Ceci n'est pas une eii.
Si dominants tend to stick to their old faithful Si things I think, Se creatives more 'Si' adventurous.
I think this is about right. I try something that I haven't had before if I'm at a new restaurant or food outlet that doesn't have something I like, and then I usually tend to stick to that with no variation. I've been eating Oysters Kilpatrick whenever I can with minimal variation for years now.
EDIT
It's not so much that I'm afraid of being disappointed, I think it just doesn't occur to me to eat something new once I've found something tasty. I can mix things up sometimes.
