I once had to use a food pantry around Easter. I was given eggs, and thought they gave me hard boiled ones, leftover Easter eggs, because they were a lovely shade of pastel green.

No. They were completely rotten inside.

So carrots, turnips, beets, parsnips, kohlrabi, not considered vegetables.

Because of reasons and probably also because I hate onions, I'm laughing so hard at (with??) the idea of someone ordering something they never heard of before because it might be some sort of onion. Like an appetizer, I hope, that just occurred to me. A mystery onion as a main dish!

I looked up the definition of "allergy" recently, because I was going to prove someone *so RONG*, and I learned that *I* was so rong.

I learned that the very word allergy was coined by an MD sometime around 1900 (give or take 20 yrs), specifically to refer to histamine reactions. And those are hives, sinus, etc. Me, I have gut reactions to wheat and too much dairy, and until/unless "allergy" gets redefined by the AMA, I tend to say things like "Nope, can't eat the bread" and leave it at that.

Vegetarian means nothing from a dead animal. Pescetarians eat fish, but then, to many people chicken seems to be also a non-meat. Well, I guess there are polotarians and beeftarians and porktarians, or in general, meatarians. Also-vegetarian vampires who sparkle...
