Sneaky acquatic vegetables... they are everywhere. They sneak in to Chinese foods and sometimes into stews and other salads. Why?! Why?!?!?
It looks so beautiful in it's natural form straight from the water, but out of a can they are just crunchy celery imposters... and don't think I like celery either. It is another one.
Water chestnuts, because of the sentient nature and ability to survive underwater, are an archenemy. Celery however is clearly relegated to nemesis status. The crunch, the horror, the things it makes peanut butter and raisins do when no one is looking... it's involvement in tuna salad. The HORROR! THE HORROR!
