I can now even pull a full strand of hair out of my food and continue eating, and once upon a time this used to ruin a meal for me.
Bravo for you, you are a tough cookie! I can't imagine doing this but life can teach you many things and if you are super hungry then it really does not matter
I've seen a lot of things in my years in Cambodia, and I've eaten at some questionable locations, so I am partially responsible, but I have found everything from rubber bands to cockroach legs and even half of a seasoning packet in my food.
Phewww you have a tough stomach
