Chicken and Goat cheese

The other day when we had that "Green Dinner" I finally had free-range chicken for the first time in my life. I have to say that it was probably the best damn chicken I've eaten thus far. While there was obviously a wide variety of flavorly mixtures, I felt like I could still taste and absorb the natural flavor of the chicken- which was so wonderful, for a change!
About the same time I felt compelled to taste the delectable goat-cheese-and-beet salad, as it was somehow staring at me as I walked by on my way to the desert section. I didn't get any for myself at that time, but managed to steal some from an all-too-willing Zoe. I found it to be one of the most disgusting foods in the history of my life up to now. I don't think the texture of the almonds or pecans (whatever they were) mixed well with the texture of the beets and goat cheese. It was too much of an abnormal combination for me to handle, so that's the end of that adventure.
