Michael Chen, 40, walks the streets of downtown Bellingham in search of a coffee shop on April 17, 2010. Chen is in the process of road tripping throughout the United States and hopes to eventually meet up with his family on the east coast. When asked what he would never consume again, Chen responded with the answer cooked whale meat. “I was in Iceland and they can fish whale there and it’s prepared into sushi. It had a very strong mammal flavor to it. It was just too much.”
David Hart, 59, walks alone down Railroad Avenue on April 17, 2010. Walking in somewhat of a hurry, Hart didn’t have to think long about his answer to the question “What would you never consume again and why?” Hart confidently said that he would never eat squid again. “I was at some fancy place and everyone ordered them as appetizers. I was just drunk enough and I picked it up and put it in my mouth and it was just horrible. Chewy, slimy, horrible thing.”
Jacqui Shaffer, 18, stands on a street corner in downtown Bellingham on April 17, 2010 wearing a sign advertising fish. For Shaffer, peanut sauce will not be incorporated into any of her meals anytime soon. “I ate a bunch of Thai food and I ended up puking that night and my vomit tasted like peanut sauce. I like peanuts and peanut butter; just not peanut sauce.”
Kenneth C. Gates, 47, leans against a wall while chatting with a friend outside of Captain Hansen’s bar on April 17, 2010. While lighting a cigarette, Gates confidently states that he would never consume rum again. “I drank it on my honeymoon a long time ago. It was a bad night. I almost didn’t stay married.”
Anne Thompson, 52, walks her Yorkie down Holly Street on the evening of April 22, 2010. Thompson picks up her dog while she contemplates what food she would never consume again. “It would have to be a hamburger,” said Thompson. She believes that the land used to raise cattle on is a big waste. “I think it’s ridiculous to pollute and use up that same energy that can be used to feed more people. Plus I think they’re just really bad for you.”
Annie Morris, 22, meets up with some friends outside of Little Cheerful on April 17, 2010 after getting off from work for the day. While retrieving her bicycle, it didn’t take Morris very long to figure out what she would never consume again. “Semen, because it tastes horrible and I’m mostly into women now. Yeah, it would definitely have to be semen or chocolate covered raisins.”
