A lot of what is happening at the boot camp is confidential, so I can’t really share many details of what’s going on, but I’ll definitely be posting more food photos while I’m here (because I’m pretty sure I don’t need to keep the type of food I’m eating secret).

I’m still on my mission to try out as many different food products as possible, and this time, I snatched up some albacore tuna to cook up. Unfortunately, I couldn’t eat this entirely raw because there was no confirmation whether or not it was appropriately flash frozen, then kept at appropriate temperatures for safe raw consumption, so I seared the outside. But, I kept it borderline blue rare.
Unfortunately, I forgot to snap another photograph after I cut into it, but this was an interesting experience – my brain couldn’t figure out whether I was eating cooked fish or sushi the entire time.
When I was focusing in on the taste of the center of the meat, it distinctly tasted like sushi, but if I were to have cooked it through the whole way, I think this is pretty much the same as any other fish – a lot of the flavoring comes from the seasoning instead of the actual meat. (Or my taste buds just aren’t properly fine tuned yet to tell the difference.) This post is over 8 years old and may contain information that is incorrect, outdated, or no longer relevant.

I stopped by the tournament because I’m local to Los Angeles now – I live near Tempo Storm’s team houses, which meant it was about a 50-mile drive to get to the venue.
Tempo Storm ended up not having a great showing – the team got eliminated in the first round against Nova eSports. But, the experience itself was pretty interesting. As you can probably tell from the final photo, I managed to snag front-row seats. The live audience viewership of the event was nowhere near what I’m used to for other esports, but it wasn’t completely empty either, which convinces me that maybe mobile gaming tournaments will actually become a bigger thing soon.

Remember the grocery shopping trip I went on yesterday to Albertson’s, where Mango got his first puppuccino? While walking around looking for some fruit, I noticed those things. Because they looked so strange, and I’ve never seen these kinds of engineered grapes before (it’s either they’re not very popular in the Chicagoland suburbs where I grew up, or my parents just didn’t ever get them), I bought some.
I washed them and tried some today. They literally taste exactly like normal grapes.
It messes with your brain a little bit when you expect to taste baby eggplant, then once you take a bite, it explodes into sweet, juicy goodness.
