    Oh yeah? Well technically some really expensive coffee brands that people pay a lot for have coffee beans that went through the digestive systems of lemur-lookalike creatures, so you’re paying tons to drink poo water.

    Also bananas and tomatoes are berries.

    A bit of instant coffee in the bottom of a bowl.

    Add 120g of frozen blueberries.

    Add a sprinkling of roasted cashews.

    Add some whole milk. (Or, heavy cream if you’re feeling thin that day.)

    Top with a generous poof of cinnamon powder, and a tiny bit of sugar.

    Stir and enjoy.

        I mean I don’t think you have to be that old to remember the cinnamon challenge. It took off in popularity in the early 2010 so about 10-15 years ago.

        I’m old enough to have a now-adult son who was dumb enough to try it. Although, at the time, I didn’t know what he was up to, so I just told him “it’s not sweet, the only reason you think it sweet is because it’s always mixed with sugar.” Fortunately, he didn’t take much of it.

    Shredded cheese has cellulose (basically sawdust). It’s added to keep the cheese from sticking together. Or that’s my understanding.

      It’s actually potato starch.

      Sawdust isn’t just cellulose. Wood is a matrix of cellulose fibers bound together by a tougher compound called lignin. While lignin isn’t particularly toxic, you wouldn’t want to eat it.

      Fun fact, a lot of the process of making paper is for removing the lignin, only the cellulose is useful for making paper. And grasses like bamboo have a higher ratio of cellulose to lignin, so it’s better for making paper

            Oh its been worse. But at the moment its become down to potato and lettuce. Its all part of her Mastcell related to EDS. Ten years ago when she was in High School basically the only only thing she could and did eat was plain chicken and plain eggs. At this point, with medications, she can mostly eat normal, aside from the potato and lettuce.

      I’d say it’s more of a tea than a soup. Unless you leave the grinds in.

      foamed lactase.

      Isn’t that the thing that digests milk, but not milk? You can buy little lactase pills at the pharmacy.

        Opps. You are correct.

        Lactase, is an enzyme that helps break down lactose into its component parts for digestion. (Wiki)

        I guess I was trying to use the verb form “lactate” for a science-y term for milk.

          Lactate is lactic acid.
