When it was St. Patrick’s Day recently I noticed that McDonald’s had their traditional Shamrock Shake promotion. I realized that in all my years I have never tried one. So I made a point to try one this year before it disappeared off the menu. My opinion? A bit too sweet with a nasty mint-chemical after-taste. I could only handle 2 sips. But then my daughter happily finished the rest off. Big surprise.

Huh. I guess I should have tried one when I was a kid. I’m sure I would have had a better impression of them.
