On fruit: Believe it or not there are people who can’t handle too much sugar from fruit(like myself). Chocolate is okay but sometimes Chinese Pecans are not. Things change when you get older (I’m writing this with a big smile on my face because I really don’t mind getting older – bring on the great-grandchildren!!!).

I also need a lot of salt. My dad used to eat salted candy when he was growing up because people weren’t getting enough of it. Now I think it’s a genetic thing because I really need salt or else the food doesn’t affect me the right way. I also have low-normal blood pressure.
