Fruit = The Shit

[Wezas]

My efforts to eat healthy are iffy at best. I still eat crappy lunches (going out to lunch while at work), try to eat a somewhat sensible dinner, and have cut out sodas (replaced them with decaf iced tea and diet ginger ale). I hate almost all vegetables - so salads and other green shit is no good for me.

I've been eating a fruit salad for dessert at least a few times per week. Huge plums, ripe bananas, fresh strawberries, juicy peaches, and (insert adjective here) nectarines. (I recently found out I may be alergic to apples, so they've been removed).

Here in Northern VA, In the past few days I've seen some huge ripe fruit in the grocery stores. The plums I got yesterday were about the size of my fist. I urge any people who like fruit to check your local grocery store, the spring crop has arrived.

That is all.

There is no fruit in any of the following items:

tacos
hot dogs
(good) cereal
water
ice cream

Thus, while I commend you for being healthy(er), fruit is dumb.

WTF Fruit totally pwnz. Yay 4 Wezas.

[TheEschaton]

You know what pwnz right now?

Nirvana's version of "Where did you sleep last night?"

Fruit gives me indigestion. At least some of it does. I like fruit cups though, nice and processed :D

You too? Some fruits just cause me awful stomach pains unless they are extremely ripe. Avacodos (sp?) and bananas are the worst for some reason, and these two fruits I cannot eat unless they are cooked or processed in some way.

Geez, I sound like my grandmother.

I get indigestion from sniffing a banana, lol. Yes, me too, it sucks.

[Wezas]

Bananas = Mad Heartburn

I'm also thinking about changing my opinion of fruit now that Tayre agrees with me.

And yes, Nirvanas version of that is good. As well as their version of "Jesus doesn't want me for a sunbeam"

[Edaarin]

What are you guys, like 50? Not even Tayvin gets heartburn from fruit I bet.

Fruit...hmm...nectarines, plums, and clementines top my list.

I keep meaning to try working food (ie, strawberries + cream) with women, but I've been told that it gets boring after about 10 minutes.

If I ate half a banana I would end up in the emergency room. And no, I am not 50...I am 82 heh.

We have photos.

I don't think I've ever gotten indigestion from fruit.. maybe just the poops (Evil peaches).


Faves: Plums, Strawberries, Tangerines, & Bananas

Fruit is great, but some of it seems to irritate my lips, mouth and throat sometimes. =( An allergic reaction I guess. I can eat the hell outta some mangoes though. Mmmmhmm.

That's what started happening to me with Apples. First it was just my gums, then a few times later it felt like my throat started closing up. No more apples for me.

Q: Do those peaches that Kramer and Newman were ranting about in an episode of Seinfeld really exist?

[Satira]

There are no fruits that I dislike.

I love red currants but you can only get them for about two weeks in the summer.

[Shari]

Dude. What is wrong with you people...

Mangos all the way.

[Vesi]

I can't think of a fruit or a vegetable that I won't eat.

Pomegranates are a fun fruit to eat. Just plan on having red fingers. I have to say... I am fond of them.

[MPSorc]

Either there's a lot of innuendo flying around or I'm just a pervert.

I'll wait for your moms response before I answer this.

But I do.

Especially from bananas, they're very high in potassium, and potassium is notoriously hard to digest.

Anyway, I stick more with veggies than fruits, but I lo ve me some fruit. I treat myself every once in a while. Better to cheat by eating fruit than by eating chocolate cake or something like that. ;)

Sounds like an alkaloid or iodine allergy.

I hate fruit. I can sit and eat sliced apples, but that's about it.

I can stomach smoothies though. Real smoothies, not those DairyQueen/Gas station crap shakes.

Just take a glass and fill it halfway with frozen chopped bananas. Throw in some frozen pineapple, a couple of strawberries. So long as you don't fill the glass completely up with fruit. Then add apple or OJ until it fill up the glass. Dump in a blender and liquify.

Good stuff.

I normally don't get that reaction this soon. It takes at least an hour in a board room before I can visibly see the tell tale signs of brain cell death.

I love fruit...but a lot of different things cause my tongue, lips and throat to itch...things like peaches, plums, nectarines...which happen to be my favorites...oh and mangoes, I love mangoes!!!

I also like Starfruit a lot, but can never find it :?:

I have never even heard of starfruit.

[Weedmage Princess]

It's good....if you like kiwis, you'll like this. They're very similar in taste. Starfruit isn't furry though on the outside..and it's shaped like--yes you've guessed it! --a star.

Starfruit has been extinct for 60 years. Weedie's still looking for another bite.
