Weirdly, I used to have a banana allergy. Always quite liked them, but would get a really itchy mouth and lips whenever I ate one. Would periodically try one just to see what happened and would get that reaction again. Tried one again about a year ago and had no ill effects.
Always have one to kick off my shift whenever I’m at work these days (and an apple for the last hour).
Kind of the opposite for me, I used to get a mild itching/irritation on my tongue and throat so stopped eating them. The occasion I mentioned above was a few years later when I thought I’d try one to see if it was any better, clearly it was far worse!
my issue with fruit is that it isn’t sugary enough. when i eat an orange i want it to taste like a fruit pastille but it doesn’t, it tastes horrible and bitter and sour with a disgusting texture. at least broccoli promises nothing and delivers nothing.
There’s a particular variety my father-in-law gets in Queensland (@ma0sm Klaxon) that are shorter, flatter and have a more pronounced hexagonal shape in the skin.
Anyway, I don’t know what variety they are but I don’t really like them. Overy sweet but also a bit ‘stringy’ on the inside and they seem to get lots more of those stringy bits under the peel that you have to pull down before you can eat it.
ACTUALLY, this was all started because you told fruit to fuck off, and since the centrists like fruit and veg equally this means in this instance they are technically part of the pro fruit lobby and you lose
