    GERD… ugh.

    Got a horror story and a triumph regarding that.

    One of my oldest friends had GERD something terrible.

    Had a bleeding ulcer from it that nearly killed her at one point.

    Was put on Aciphex but it gave her terrible diarrhea with the hot shits regardless, so I suggested she try a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar after each meal. Goes down thermonuclear hot for 10 seconds or so but eases up quite fast.

    It seems counter-intuitive, but vinegar is a digestive, in that it aids digestion by being an acid base, and it also tempers the acid pumps in the stomach because again, it IS an acid, so they produce less.

    She was off the Aciphex inside of three weeks. Hot shits… gone.

    For general stomach soothing, I put a capful of Braggs apple cider vinegar into a cup of water before bed. It makes the water spry and slightly tangy. Works a charm for my stomach - esp when I eat out.

    Vinegar is the best!

  Onions I can to like thanks to guacamole. Never got to like bell peppers. I can tolerate most of them, but green is a no-go.

    All bell peppers taste the same to me.

      They pretty much do taste the same. The red, orange and yellow are great to add to salads for a touch of color.

      Yeah I don’t get this. I’ve met people who say they don’t like green bell peppers. Like they all taste the same lol.

    The different colors are how ripe they are. Green peppers are the least ripe and have a different taste because of it.

      Yeah, that taste overpowers anything else in a dish for me. In some dishes, I can takes it, but I’m really sensitive to it.

  I love onions, but peppers I can take or leave.

    Same. Bell peppers have an overwhelming taste that overpowers everything they’re cooked with. Spicy chilies on the other hand are perfectly fine and welcomed.

  I always replace onions with fennel in every recipe. I have yet to find one where that wasn’t an instant improvement. I honestly don’t understand why people eat onions when fennel exists.

    I don’t understand how the two are interchangeable. It’s like saying you substitute mint when something calls for a tomato.

    Fennel can absolutely have a place in dishes with onions, but it is not a total replacement. Way too strong a flavor for most flavor bases that start out with onion.

      Sauteed sliced fennel would have a similar bite and sweetness, but with that added licorice aroma and without the onioniness. In a pasta sauce where dried fennel seed would be normal anyway, it seems pretty genius to me. I’m going to pick some up and try it next time I get to the grocery store.

  They’re probably like my little kids. They say they hate onions and eat them anyway. About anything from McDonald’s, chips of nearly every sort, so many foods with onion powder as part of the flavoring.

    There’s a difference between onion powder and those vile little vinegar’d onions macdonalds puts on it’s vile burgers.

  I was and still am a very picky eater. I’ve started cooking for myself and have become dramatically less picky. However, I’m still not a fan of raw onion. I almost like them more the more they are cooked. I don’t like raw onion, but I love caramelized onion. I guess it’s really I just don’t like the texture of raw onion.

    Cooking gets rid of a lot of the acidity, so could be that in addition to texture.

  I used to give the same look to fellow lemmigurians when hearing about how they don’t just eat onions … but then I became less judgy & a whole new world opened up for me - before I knew it I could hear the sound of chilli …

  I’ll eat them every once in awhile. I’ll want to kill myself for like two or three days for it, but I’ll still eat them.
