One must never eat a lime peal again!

Last night at VBS we were doing a skit about sinking or floating. We had numerous items to place in the tub of water. One of them was an orange pealed and one not pealed. The professor took a bite out of the pealed orange. So what does not so smart Jamie do?? I took a huge bite out of the orange WITH the peal on it. It wasn't so bad and went down well with a swig of Mountain Dew. After a few more I challenged the professor to eat whatever I pulled out of the mystery bucket. It was a lemon. He bit into it and it was priceless to seem his face. Although I did notice he never ate the lemon peal. So the last for me was a lime. I bit into that sucker and the meat of the fruit was fine. The peal was NOT! I began to choke down the peal...but my ole trusty Mountain Dew seem to have no effect on the lime peal taste. Once my gag reflex started to kick in I decided it was time for drastic measures. Slowly I would pack the peal in the far recesses of my cheeks until a time came up to get rid of the vile substance. Then FINALLY a time came for the attention to come off of the professor and me and I rushed off stage. I expelled the lime peal mush into a Wal-Mart bag. I forgot to turn off my mic so I am glad I didn't gag. All the kids heard was a wrinkling bag.

So note to everyone:
If you think eating a lime peal is fun you are crazy. NEVER do it! Take it from a not so smart expert in this department.
