so i go to a mentoring meeting and they ask for dietary requirements. i say i can't eat green food. so every single sandwich has lettuce.

 

[kokodamonkey]

you can take it off can't you though?

 

[imsopostmodern]

yeah. its just kinda gross though, taking lettuce off in front of 20 other people... so i didnt eat much. they fail at catering

can't eat green food?

 

[imsopostmodern]

green vegetables specifically. so green food colouring is ok, but lettuce, spinach, etc aint so great

 

[rubificticious]

oh, why?
i've never heard of anything like that.

 

[kokodamonkey]

what happens if you eat lettuce.

 

[imsopostmodern]

i bleed/bruise more easily. much harder to stop it. mostly only an issue if i get myself cut or something

you knowledgable young thing!

 

[kokodamonkey]

does it thin the blood or something

 

[imsopostmodern]

does it thin the blood or something

yep.

 

[kokodamonkey]

surely it would require a huge amount of green stuff though? like one or two lectuce sandwiches wouldn't do much harm? and how long does it take to "ware off" ?

 

[imsopostmodern]

im on some trippy meds atm for various reasons (not to do with mental health though lol) and it reacts with them. takes about 3 days to wear off
