For vegetarian pescatorians I assume.
I struggle to get past all this faddy eating.

Well, dere, I had a small conviction vegetarian who didn’t like vegetables (and who was painfully thin to start with). There is a limit to the number of boiled eggs one can in all conscience allow…
Gahhhh. And peanut butter sandwiches. Gxxx
“Doesn’t like the taste of meat” is fairly strange when you look at it: meat does not all taste the same, and the different ways of preparing meat taste different from each other, so it’s a bit of a blanket condemnation.
I mean, I can tell pork from lamb from bacon, no bother at all, and sausage is nothing like veal stew…
… and some veg taste better to me that others, and different preparations make a lot of difference. Boiled carrots versus carrot baked slowly in butter, for instance. Boiled, fried or baked parsnip.
Yes, but I think one could reliably tell if something were meat or not, blindfold, and am Herefordshire ready to believe in a blanket dislike.
Herefordshire should be therefore, btw. Balzac!
So you reckon it is a textural thing?
Oh, I’d probably better call a
yardaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarm
while I'm here.
I am in the Hotel trying to top up me Dongle, so will be older & greyer by the time I have finished

My sort of foods
Lots of little bits of all sorts of stuff
And leave room for cheeses
slammers for them as wants them.
There is definitely a textural aversion in some cases, but I also think there is a, oh, I dunno, familial maybe, underlying taste common to all mammalian flesh which those who like meat don’t perceive but which the others identify and dislike.
Wise words, Twellsy
“Have you accepted cheeses into your life?”
“I am the Whey, the Truffello and the Livarot…”
Thinking of cheese, I made a sliced tomato, mozzarella, basil, olive oil and balsamic vinegar salad to go with leek and chestnut risotto, tonight. It was good.
The younguns have decided that Turkish is the way to go, for lunch tomorrow. We’ll have friends x 3 visiting in the evening to discuss another friend’s health,
