The discussion of water chestnuts lead to the question of what we would rather eat maggots or water chestnuts. Sadly it was not a question either one of was able to resolve. How can such depths of vileness be differentiated from

I happen to like water chestnuts. Cooked in Chinese food they are great. I actually like the crunch.
