Pineapple
Attachment 44401 |
I love pineapple! I could eat an entire one if they didn't make your tongue hurt
|
Fun fact: pineapple makes your tongue burn not because it's acidic (many foods are,) but because it contains tons of a digestive enzyme called bromelain. This means that eating fresh pineapple with your meal, especially the core, will help you digest the rest of your meal. But it also means that while it's in your mouth, before it gets to the protective layer of mucus in your stomach, it is literally digesting your own flesh.

You call that a "fun" fact? That's horrifying! D:

I love to eat pineapple with salt and chili peppers. The torture I must've put my stomach through and didn't know. :p
Green smoothie: milk, spinach, banana, grapes, and a tbsp of flaxseed oil. I tossed in some old kumquats, which I'm never gonna do again. Made the drink tasted a bit weird. Attachment 44404 |

Thank you for the info! I always thought I was weirdorama because fresh pineapple hurt the corners of my mouth. They were obviously the most sensitive parts; I stopped when it started hurting. I'd still be tempted by really fresh pineapple though. I ate it every day in Sri Lanka and it was like going from black and white TV to colour. Quote:

We went to an Indian restaurant for lunch. We already started eating before I remembered to take a picture. I was so full. I don't think I'll eat again until tomorrow.
Attachment 44429 Next to the restaurant is an Indian snacks and British candies shop. I asked the owner's permission before snapping a picture. :D Attachment 44430 I saw this and thought it was funny. Attachment 44431 |
"Special barf?!" Ha! Was that like a "garbage cookie" - a dessert with everything in it?

Today is vegetarian day so we has spinach soup, spinach stir fry, green bean stir fry, and cucumber. The sauces are spicy bean curd sauce and spicy soy sauce. Afterwards, we had Japanese green tea and chocolates.
