     So, few days ago me and my family went to a place called Jungle Jims. It's an exotic grocery store basically, you can get like everything underthe sun there from all different parts of the country, even the world. Some examples would be like Grouper and Swordfish steaks from the Gulf or Florida, I've seen rattlesnake meat there, the meats they sell there are like NOTHING compared to Walmart and Kroger, they make Walmart and Kroger look bad... :XD: Anyways, somewhere within a 7 day range we went there and they had a ton of food samples all throughout the store and me being me, I don't pass up GOOD food samples. They had samples in the bread sections, the fruit and veggie sections, the meats and cheeses sections, all of it was like fresh and tasted SO so good... And now for the past 2 days I think I regret it. 
     Yesterday and today I thought it was just my sinuses because of all the weird weather we're having here up in Ohio. But today i woke up with the sore throat feeling way worse than yesterday and with my allergies normally it doesn't change or get worse, it actually calms down by the end of the day. So I had a look in the mirror and yeaaaaah it does NOT look anything like sinuses O-O I thought I was just getting paranoid and so I went up to my mom since she's a nurse and even if she wasn't she's dealt with these sinarios so many times she's memorised pretty much how everything goes :XD: And so to me, I thought I was seeing it looked really really irritated (Obviously) but also kind of filmy looking and speckled, just gross in general... And when she looked at it I heard the usual "Greaaaaaat, you look like you caught something. There's like a few small speckles of red or white here and there and your tonsils look like coral." If anyone knows what I mean by "looks like coral" well, if you look up coral pictures how it has indents in the rock yet raised lines that separate those indents, that's basically what it's like.
     But yeah... NEVER TRUST FOOD SAMPLES! >~< I thought since it's a nice clean and well managed place, they would be fine, because like at Walmart and Kroger I've learned my lesson because every time I've tried samples at those places, within the week or week and a half I get sick with something. But noooo, no matter how nicely kept the place is... Just be well aware there's a good chance you can still get something... I don't know if it's because my immune system sucks (I get sick easily and hit pretty hard with it too whenever I do get sick) or if it's just my luck. But yeah, that's how my weeks gonna go now, I might need to go to the doctor in a day or 2 (since its only been 2 days of this, whatever it is needs time to spread to get a certainty, blah blah blah "wait a few days before going to the doctor" saying...) and maybe have to have an antibiotic if it gets worse or isn't viral o.o 
     Note to self and a tip for the world... Don't trust the food samples... Unless it's personally asked for and handed to you over the counter by the actual deli people and such... No matter how tempting and good it looks ;~;

Our local Sam's Club lets you watch the process of making the food, so I always trust those samples.
