I loved bananas as a young kid, then around the age of maybe 5 or 6 (I think it was around preschool or kindergarten age) I suddenly got violently ill for no apparent reason after eating some. Ever since, the taste of bananas is associated with nausea for me. My girlfriend has been trying to help by offering banana items when she eats them (she loving loves bananas), and every time I eat I still get this horrible sense of wrongness. I don't really mind the flavor, my brain just screams that I shouldn't be tasting this.

One night we were at Epcot and she bought some chocolate-banana Pocky sticks from the Japan pavilion. She offered me one, and I politely grabbed it and took a big bite out of it. As I chewed, I looked her right in the eye and said "I'd probably really enjoy this if I liked bananas." Her eyes got wide as she suddenly remembered just why I didn't eat bananas and she began profusely apologizing.

Hang on this bugs me. Whose hand is that. That ain't no donut hacker hand. It should look like a discolored wrestling game to the death between barbapapas.

Or is this the Stepford variety, where the gloss of the immaculately manicured verges and toenails are but the facade for a house full of festering pets and distended husband and kids who are slowly fed to death by the vile schemes hatched by her shambolic lizard people mind???

Yeah. That must be it. Whew. I'm glad we got that sorted.

Oh man, this reminds me of one of the worst Shark Tank pitches I ever saw. It was a stuffed elephant, that was supposed to be the Elephant in the Room, and the idea was that you put it out somewhere visible when you had a relationship problem you wanted to talk about with your partner.

A $60 stuffed animal for people who are too passive aggressive to say "Hey, can we talk about X?"

Toilet paper rationing is the sort of thing that would make me start using more just out of spite at someone trying to dictate how I am allowed to wipe my rear end.

Mushrooms are one of the hardest things to digest (which is why people with IBS or other problems generally have to avoid them). Our digestive tract is not entirely sure what to do with fungi, so it takes a long time to break it down.

A few weeks ago, I ate a bunch of mushrooms in something for dinner because mushrooms are delicious. Hours later, I threw up for no apparent reason, and everything was bile goop except for the still perfectly intact mushrooms. Your intestines spend hours and hours trying to digest those delicious fuckers.

Difficulty in digesting mushrooms is due to natural variation in chitinase expression, which is not very high in Western Caucasians for similar reasons to lactase expression being low in South East Asian populations.

High chitinase levels and activity in digestive juices are observed in around 1 in 5 white European-descended people. So I guess you're one of the unlucky 80%. Assuming you're Caucasian. If not, you're astonishingly unlucky, because almost every other human genetic clade expresses pretty high levels of chitinase by comparison.

Could the fact that you're puking up intact food be a clue to the problem? Maybe if you tried chewing your food instead of inhaling it, you wouldn't throw it up.

It might help if you chew them I would think, unless this is some lifehack to save time at the dinner table and have reusable fungi for midnight snacks. like a animal off the floor, wallah and so on probably applies then I guess.

I thought it was because humans are just bad digesting stuff neither animal nor plant. :downs:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it the case that if you do have the barfs coming on, the digestive system puts everything into full expunge mode, to the point that even fluid is no longer being taken up but instead pumped all astern full into the digestive tract, the rationale being to reduce the potential for poison frogs, boogers and other assorted pathogens that your dumb chimp hands have thought it prudent to jam down the gullet to enter past the mucous membrane and into the blood stream and body proper. Then you barf and go on to live another day. And That's why you sometimes hurl pieces of intact foodstuffs. Besides obviously you've been eating like a loving hog and not chewed anything you gobbled down that horrid trash chute, but still, is that whereabouts correct?
