Re: Celery

No ... LOL. Probably because the salt I put down the middle makes me lips pucker up and don't notice.

See that what happens when you try and do 2 things at the same time. Its a good job you had not put new batteries in it, you might have knocked your teeth out.

Re: Celery

Do you know you use more calories eating celery then it actually contains. Just a bit of useless information.

The celery itself contains a lot of sodium (salt)

Re: Celery

It's quite common for people to be allergic to celery so maybe that's what's causing the problem in your mouth. I think, though, it's probably just that it has a strong flavour with no sweetness in it.

I, obviously, dice with death (anaphylactic shock, at least) when I eat it as I like to spread it with peanut butter.
