Writer's Block: You Ate What?

It happened back when I was still a good little christian boy (yes, that many decades ago) and was on a missionary trip to Mexico (yes, that brainwashed) with several other churches, including a Korean church. And, of course, I managed to end up getting dared by one of the kids from that church to drink a glass of the vile, red, swirly juice, right after he chugged his down without so much as a twitch or belch.
I remember vaguely the sensations of heat. That and the feeling of small chunks of vegetable matter going straight down my throat (the stuff hadn't been strained all that thoroughly) The rest is thankfully a blank. I was later told about attempting to get water down my system, of all possible bad mistakes, not to mention the eventual throwing up and passing out. To this day, I still can't even think about the stuff with a bit of revulsion.
