You would have died 100 years ago and thus improved the gene pool

What the hell is wrong with you?

And I won't die if I eat most of that stuff (bananas is the one exception) I'll just be miserable.

.

That question seems to be getting asked a lot today

 

[eileenbunny]

you described 75% of what I put into my body during the day

For me the biggest bummer is onions. I mean, onions are delicious and they are in like everything! I can avoid nitrates and MSG by planning and cooking my own stuff, but onions are really tough to work around.

A) He's a dick
2) He has no human interactions with anyone, so doesn't know how to behave.

But on the plus side, he can eat anything.

Well then I'm sure glad he's improving our gene pool. I just hope he doesn't raise his own kids. The world could use a few less assholes.

I'm not much on whiskey anyway. In fact, the drinking part bother's me the least. I'm not much of a drinker. Occasionally I will go on a tequila bender or enjoy a beer with steamed crabs, but mostly I could take it or leave it.

I will forgive you... I will try

That sucks about the onions. Is it both raw AND cooked? can you do shallots? in our house, onions are a g.d. staple! can you do the onion flavor, but not the physical onion?

I can do the dried minced kind or onion powder. It's still not the same. Onions just make everything better. No shallots either.

 

[Amstel]

at least you can do dried minced & the powder. what is it that makes the fresh ones bad, but the dried OK? can you do garlic?

It's the acid. I guess in the drying process a lot of that dissipates so it's not as potent. Garlic seems to be fine although I don't know many people that eat garlic the same way they eat onions. I don't often pick up a whole head of garlic, chop it up, and put it in something, but I might put a whole onion in something.

what about tomato products, those are very acidic generally

Tomatoes are iffy. The acid in tomatoes is both citric and malic. The acid in onions is sulfenic. I don't find I have a lot of trouble with tomatoes like in sauce and stuff, although I'm not a huge fan. I try really hard to stay away from citric acid, but that too is terribly difficult. It's in everything.

You sir, do not use enough garlic!
