So, long story short...

Edgar Vergara made the mistake of

eating a bad tasting butter covered bagel

My Advice to You is

when overseas and something tastes bad, it probably is

Here's the whole story

Bad idea bagel

If there is one thing that I love about London, it’s the deli style sausages that they serve for breakfast. These aren’t like the little sausage patties or links that we’re used to here in the United States, but instead the huge kind similar to what we eat in hot dog buns.

It was our second day of being in London and my second satisfying breakfast with eggs, toast, and England sausage that I decided to get a bagel to go with my meal to make up for UK’s smaller meal portions. After grossing Jason out with the amount of butter that was spread on my bagel, I bit into my meal filler and noted that it didn’t really taste that good. In the land of expensive everything, I wasn’t about throw away a £2 bagel that is actually costing me $4. It was only about 30 minutes later that I had sharp stomach pains. Never before have I had such pain from an upset stomach that I couldn’t walk straight. I wasn’t able to get better until I took a trip to the super bowl and the drug store for some Rennie (Rolaids). New rule is that no matter how much food costs, if it’s going to make you sick, it’s not worth eating.

You broke the first rule of eating. Obey your taste buds.
