I can eat most melons but the Honey Dew makes me puke every time I eat it.
Cantaloupe causes no problems. I can eat all other fruits with no problem

my father's allergist told him that enzymes in different foods are toxic to
some people and cooking/freezing changes this so they react differently

Could it have been a preservative? Like sulphur for instance?

no supposedly according to him the cold/heat affects the cell structure and
chemical make up of various foods, sorta like pine trees don't procreate
until there is a fire and the cones explode... have tried pineapple on
several occasions, strawberries a couple times, but accidental ingestion
keeps me very aware of its negative effects, Lee

and got very sick, Lee

I have never liked honey dew. Rockmelon (cantaloupe) is my favourite.

Angela loves all melons. But we don't buy them very often because there is
just sooo much meat in a melon. She can never eat it all before it goes
bad. When I find cut up ones, we will buy a piece or some chunks.

Last summer, Central Market had a melon tasting. They must have had 50
kinds of melon there! I didn't know so many existed.

She ran around with toothpicks, picking chunks out of the ice and eating
them. Then when it came time to buy some, she couldn't decide. She finally
chose two. And wouldn't you know... They never got eaten. Went bad before
I could fix them.

I used to buy a lot of them in NY. I have a couple of platters that are
full of that blue ice type stuff. You keep them in the freezer and they
will keep your food cold for a couple of hours or more, even on a hot day.
I used to cut up lots of fruit and put it outside for all the kids. We went
through a ton of fruit there!

costco had a huge mixed fruit bow the other day for pretty cheap, didn't get
it as it had more pineapple than dh thought he could eat, Lee

I get that when my husband is home. He can eat the whole thing by himself
in two days. Also get the plain pineapple for him. Pineapple doesn't
bother him. He lived in Hawaii for a while. For Angela I just get the
sliced apples and the canned pears. She likes to eat the apples with
hummus.

Today at Rite Aid we got some cups of canned pears with spoons attached.
She took one in her lunch today. She LOVES canned pears!

a girl wit good taste, canned pears are a gift from g*d if you ask me, i
love them poached with some smelly cheese on top, is it you or here that
can't eat dary? i also love canned pears treated like you would apple pie
filling but no crust, either eat plain or over ice creamon the rare occasion
i eat that... just wonderful, Lee

We outgrew the dairy allergy but can have it twice a week.

As a kid, I would make chocolate pudding so that it was really thick. Have
to do the cooked kind to get that. I don't normally like pudding as is. I
would take a package that serves 4 and cook it down to 2 servings. I would
then cool it and add canned pears. My family thought it was disgusting.

Since we have pear trees, I have tried pears in a variety of recipes.
Mostly I used them like apples, but we just didn't like the end result. I
did mix some with apples and we made what Angela calls papplesauce. It was
okay. But applesauce is better. And before we knew of her wheat allergy, I
made bread with them. It was okay too, but you couldn't really taste the
pears.

I can't stand the texture of watermelons so don't eat those. But all other
melons? They give me stomach pains and make me burp. So no melons for me.
