Gee Jill... I eat salads. I love salads. Yes, cold salads. Sometimes
even with shredded iceberg lettuce too! Oh and tacos! Love tacos! Those
are pretty normal foods. Right? What do you call a person who won't eat
those things? There has got to be some term for it, I would think.
I don't have any food allergies. Just OAS to pistachios and almonds and
that *was* confirmed by an allergist.
I don't go to WebMD and don't really even know much about it. But
apparently *you* do! You seem to know a lot about this Munchausen's thing.
Any reason why? As I have said before, the only time I've ever heard of it
aside from your mentioning it was on an old episode of Quincy. That was the
same show that put the fear of Fava beans into me because some Japanese
grandmother gave some to her grandson and he died. She didn't know that he
had Favism. But you'll be happy to know that I did recently eat some Fava
beans in a salad and I didn't die. Can't say that they were my favorite
beans but they were okay.
