Wheatgrass

It's not really that confusing - but then, you seem to be discombobulated by my

suggestion to look for dosing methods of difficult foods that maximize the

pleasure : mortification of the flesh ratio. Apparently, feeling sick, if only

for a few moments, is both acceptable and preferable to the " hassle " of enjoying

it as food. I've never been smacked so hard for a friendly sharing of pertinent

knowledge/experience.

I respond to a digest. Life is short. I only have so much time and patience to

cut and paste. May I suggest that if it is difficult for you to keep even a

tenuous grasp on threads of a conversation that is taking place within the same

day and, my goodness, with the same heading, that some crucial micronutrients -

say, humor and flexibility - may be lacking?

>Grain as we know it didn't exist until we began cultivating its

ancestors. Same with pugs and dachshunds and whippets.

Huh? Then why did humans cultivate it? Of course it existed. It was smaller

and harder to process, but it clearly had utility, as did dogs. Moreover, the

dung/stomach contents idea makes even more sense if you believe that early grain

was so cellulose-protected that it would have low utility for humans.
