Tomatoes
Fuji Apples
Honey Crisp Apples
watermelons


I could eat tomatoes every day of my life and I absolutely LOVE Honey Crisp Apples.  The only place I can find them is at Super Target, they aren't cheap.


Tomatoes and avocados are my favorites.

I love tomatoes...esp. the little grape tomatoes...yummy.

I can stand one or two peas in fried rice or a seven layer salad....but could never eat them plain...I gag just thinking about it.

Have you ever been to the Cadillac Bar in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico ?

They have some really good Guac.   :yum:

Cashews are the least fattening if you'll crack the shell between your teeth and get the nut out with your tongue.

The problem I have with tomatoes is that if they (raw) are part of anything, especially sandwiches, all I can taste is the tomatoes.  Same for tacos and the like.

And I love the way they make guac in Mexico -- the best places do it tableside.

Guacamole will keep you regular. It's not uncommon for my family to use a four pack of paper after one authentic mexican meal....

Damn! LOL

This isn't regular though..this is the stomach where the food first goes to being crampy. I don't know..maybe the fat content in avocados is too high for me? I love the things though.  :bawl:

Precisely, Rob. I think you hit the nail on the head. I think it is that they are too rich.

Then "food" needs to be re-defined to include things you inhale. 

For you, BC...consider the definition expanded. :-)
