Screenshot anime Girls Bravo

Pic of the day: What is my favorite food? In terms of quantity eaten, possibly strawberry yogurt, until this Tuesday.

(Oh, and today's picture is from the anime Girls Bravo, and will no doubt draw a crowd because of the none too bright people who google for "anime girls". This is a recurring search each month. Also, all the fog in the picture is because the scene takes place in a bath and the girl has no clothes on but the viewer is not supposed to see how they look without clothes. And neither are you.)

Short: End of the salad

On Monday, I once again bought some salad from the salad bar in the supermarket. I have been willing to put up with it being somewhat expensive, since it is so healthy. But then, some minutes after I ate it, my mouth started to itch. This is not generally accepted as healthy. I'm not sure whether this was a problem with the vegetables or the way they were prepared. In retrospect, I realize that it may have been some unrelated condition which just happened to break out after I had chewed the fairly hard vegetables. In fact, the next day my throat was itching for much of the day after I had eaten strawberry yogurt for breakfast. I have been eating strawberry yogurt regularly for several years, so it seems unlikely that I would suddenly have an allergic reaction. Even so, I have not tasted strawberry after that, and I have stopped buying the salad too.

Ironically, I did not know you could be allergic to vegetables until a few days ago, when I read it in a magazine. (Can't remember whether it was online or offline.) I particularly remember that they mentioned cucumber. Also it only applied to people who were allergic to certain kinds of pollen, I think. I certainly have never noticed it before. Perhaps it was the power of hypochondria. Or more likely, if I had not read that small article, I would have blamed the itch on something else. I have not read anything about strawberries for years, after all, and I doubt a food allergy would suddenly develop at my advanced age. Still, I will try some other breakfast (and other types of yogurt) for a while.
