I could never understand why BUTTER beans didn't taste better.

Because is you drown them in butter, they are edible.

I didn't like lima beans as a kid. Now they are ok. Not in the top 10, but ok.

Afternoon all.

Hey @CapricornFarm. Has anybody mentioned psoriatic arthritis to you? I know you have been having a long of problems with pain issues the same as I have. PA could be the answer you are looking for. Hope you are seeing a good rheumy and or derm specialist. Feel Better.

You guys are just cruel talking about all this food that I can't eat. Doctor branded me with a B.R.A.T. diet. For those of you who don't have kids or hacve never been privy to work a ped's unit. Banana, rice, applesauce tea. He did say that I could have chicken breast as I am grinding it and noodles...which I'm going to eat whether he likes it or not. I've had to eliminate sugar from my diet unless it's in fruit. No red meat. I can eventually have fish but nothing fried, no deserts. All the cooked veggies I want.

DH asked me to bring him a granola bar earlier. I said, can I bring me one too? Nope.

I am feeling slowly better. Tired as hell, no energy but the pain hasn't been too bad today...yet.

But man my appetite is coming back, I'm especially hungry in the afternoon and evening. Morning not so much for some strange reason. Fruit helps some. I've demolished a honey dew melon. Could chew through the rind I could!

Yes, someone mentioned it but it also occurred to me. It's possible. Is there a specific blood test for that?

I hate all beans except string beans.

Aren't butter beans fatter, larger lima beans?

The bigger they are the less I am interested in them. Seems the tiny ones aren't as "starchy". I'm willing to give my lima beans of any size to the first who requests them

Banana, rice, applesauce tea.

I HOPE that is a temporary "cleansing" diet because I think I'd find a way to leave this earthly life if I had to eat that for the rest of my life.

Yeah, i don't even eat bananas so it would be even worse for me.
