Most fish roes, green bell peppers and arugala are on my will politely eat, but really rather not have list. I would likely refuse a whole stuffed pepper, but can handle it if its in another dish.

Sea cucumber? I've had it prepared really wonderfully at a sushi bar. The way Yoshi does it, I wouldn't really call it gelatinous - its even a bit crisp. Its a real treat when he has it.
I forgot about my disinterest in beer....probably because I haven't drank any beer in past...um 2 decades! Last time I had beer, my reaction was: I don't get it. What's so great about this? My dearie, who is German..doesn't care for beer. He probably drank it..30 years ago.

I haven't had enough stuffed peppers to dislike...'cause I just don't encounter them when friends serve a home-cooked meal. Nor would I order in restaurant. Sounds hum-drum..well, to me.

Good, that you have found a place for a better way of preparing sea cucumber.
