Weirdest (and funniest) food combos!
« on: September 02, 2013, 04:30:12 am »
What was your weirdest food combo ever and how did you feel afterward?

Here are some of mine:

peaches and onions (felt ok)
mandarines and walnuts (felt a bit heavy and burping up a bit)
banana and walnuts (felt sick)
tomatoes and apple (felt ok)

I always get a chuckle when I combine the muscle of one animal with the fat of another animal. It feels like an inside joke that nobody but I understand.

Do you mean mixing before or after ingestion?
Cause and effect are distant in time and space in complex systems, while at the same time there’s a tendency to look for causes near the events sought to be explained. Time delays in feedback in systems result in the condition where the long-run response of a system to an action is often different from its short-run response. — Ronald J. Ziegler

haha, whatever!
Somehow I knew you (especially) would ask such question because I ve thought of that myself.  8) 8)

I suppose you always monomeal, right?  ;)


Ok, I ll be clearer with my combos:

peaches and onions : one mixed meal
mandarines and walnuts: 2 mono meals within a short period of time (maybe 40 min)*
banana and walnut: one mixed meal

* I noticed that in the past when I ate large amounts of acidic fruits, after a while I felt a particular attraction to fatty food, especially nuts or legumes like peanuts. Perhaps the fat was to countereffect the burning of the possible acidity in my stomach (even though I did not perceive any burning..)
 It is only after my last indigestion of walnuts that my body (or my mind..) is not driven anymore to look for fat after I eat acidic fruits.

That point is of utmost importance because mixing in the stomach is a natural way which has happened in our animals and hominids ancestors for millions of years. Eating foods one by one in sequence (as they are usually not found in the same place and at the same time) allows mammals to properly feel how much of each food they need.

On the contrary mixing before ingestion is a completely new method which in most cases requires some tools such as pottery — and pottery is  one of the most distinctive features marking the Neolithic separation from Paleolithic. Our adaptation to such food mixtures is certainly very incomplete, as we can easily experiment. For example, mix a few drops of lemon juice with oysters and the smell of lemon will completely mask the oyster’s own smell and deeply change its taste. It’s an efficient way to get poisoned by a bad oyster!

No, not necessarily and currently most of the times not. A few people do and I tried their method to eat several mono-meals per day, but I ended by eating always until late in the night. It deeply disturbed my habits and well being, so now I try to eat only twice a day, once around noon and once in the evening, as I and most other “instinctos” have done without problems for several decades.

Unless we are totally satisfied of our meal with a single foodstuff, there’s no reason not to search for and choose a second food, then perhaps a third and a fourth. Some food can bring enzymes helping digestion of the first while some don’t digest well together. This is something we learn by experimenting. What is important is not to eat again some more of the first food after we had felt an instinctive stop with it and ate something else – which would allow us to like the first food again because of the enzymes brought by the second, this resulting in an overload of some substances.

Usually, sweet fruits digest well with other sweet fruits, vegetables with other vegetables (including tomatoes, red pepper, avocados and cucumbers which are botanically fruits). Significant amounts of nuts don’t digest well with other nuts and avocados. It’s also wise to limit the intake of animal foods to one kind of animal per meal, as it would naturally happen in nature. Vegetables can generally be eaten without problems shortly after (or before) meat, fish or eggs.

Not ideal, but it depend on your actual state, hunger and respective amounts.

Prevents you instinct to properly dose each.

feeling afterwards: like i just did something weird/wrong.

(in my early days of RZC i was too hung up on trying to get as much variety as possible and 70-80% fat at each meal)

Right, thank you!   ;)

True. I ve personally experienced that. The guy squeezed some lemon (without asking me first) on my oysters and I got SO pissed off. I could not taste or smell anything else than lemon.. >:

I also eat twice a day but I stop eating around 15 pm.
Curious monomealing disturbed your well being.. I find it very calming and satisfactory instead.  l)

It can be so if you've got and ate a particularly adequate food in sufficient amount while having enough other satisfactions, motivating activities and/or enjoyment in your life. For example, with nice and interesting relationships around, jackfruit for lunch and sea turtle eggs for dinner can be totally satisfactory. :)
 
When I was driving a truck for the day, I used to choose in the morning one kind of fruit which I took along until lunchtime. It was fine because I was busy with my work and didn't have time to think much about eating until coming back at home in the evening. Then, I had a complete meal with usually, in sequence: a raw animal food, veggies, possibly one kind of nuts and finally one kind of fruit. 

Now it's different because at home I have in permanence several different foods available anytime and when I’m lonely and bored, I feel like eating — even without being hungry. That's a problem: too easily available stored food. But otherwise I would have to go shopping / searching for food everyday and it would be a hassle. What to do?  ???
