What's that?

water chestnuts

you ever order chinese and bite into something that feels spongy yet firm after mistaking it for something else? yeah, that's what it is.

The reason you don't like them is because you've only had them canned, which are awful. They're pretty good fresh, but like so many other vegetables canned suck.

Dude you have been eating some rotten as shit water chestnuts

They have the texture of somewhere between a crisp apple and jicama and have a mild pleasant taste.

seconding this description, good water chestnuts are a joy

Nice... But, in an extreme situation, that's will not aliment us?

I like them a lot, but in sparse quantities.

Never even heard of them even though my dad is Viet.

What?

I eat canned water chestnuts all the time - they have a texture like crisp apple and a subtle sweetness.

It's going to be alright, it's your personality, not your ethnic makeup that's the reason you're not socially inclined.
