thank you

blueberries

blueberries, thank you.

thank you for being one of 3 fruits so far that don't make my mouth and lips and throat itch like crazy cakes.

fruits, of which i can only have 5 bites, total, before i feel like my throat might swell:

apples
cherries
lychee
mango
watermelon
peaches
bananas

fruits, of which i have been buying a metric fuckton, because i crave fruit:

strawberries
blueberries
raspberries (ish) (because they're a bit more expensive)


i'm going to attempt to try organic fruits, local fruits, etc, to see if there's any difference. eating local honey didn't seem to help much, unfortunately. for someone whose parents fed them fruit non-stop as a child, this really blows.

just by looking at that list, i'd say you're allergic to tree fruits and not vine fruits (ie berries, which are different, but somehow still fruits)

so, grapes? blackberries? apparently kiwi??? (no idea! just looked that up!) also, gooseberries and currants, though i suspect those are harder to find.

On which list is pineapple? At least you get to eat strawberries.

I wish I crave fruit. Instead I crave soda, Mr. Goodbar candy bars, and anything really bad for me.
