Personal food questions... - Magical Realist - Oct 5, 2025
What is some food you would love to eat or drink but which for some reason you are not able to?
Mine is lentils. I could scarf down bowls of that shit! But alas, they give me a splitting headache. Yes...that's a thing.

I can't eat almonds, or pound cake (and anything else constituted of a pound cake type mixture, like certain small donuts). Same consequences with respect to either of the two.

One of my favorite desserts growing up was Sara Lee's pound cake. Sometimes I'd get a whole one just for me on my birthday.

If you could take 3 foods in unlimited supply to live on a deserted island, what would they be?
Mine? Beans. Rice. Tortillas.

Maybe dragonfruit? Gotta avoid it right now for various reasons including price... maybe one day I'll be able to have it again.

I bought a dragonfruit once. I was so impressed with how it looked and its name. But the taste was somewhat underwhelming. For a truly sweet and exotic fruit, you can't beat a good ripe mango.
