I've got a weird belly today.
Can't be 100% sure what caused it but I suspect might be boiled potatoes. I have a weird issue with potatoes... fine roasted, but boiled or mash, and it sometimes sets my stomach off.
Anyone have any thoughts on why this might be?

Gene editing creates compact goldenberry plants suitable for large-scale farming
Goldenberries taste like a cross between pineapple and mango, pack the nutritional punch of a superfood, and are increasingly popular in U.S. grocery stores. But the plants that produce these bright yellow-orange fruits grow wild and unruly—reaching heights that make large-scale farming impractical.

Spending time in #Udupi #India, I've to be extra disciplined to eat healthy because #food is plenty and plenty of food is #unhealthy (but tasty). My success requires the understanding of both hosts and the serving personnel, and most days they take very good care of me.
Today was especially moving because I was at a place and people new to me, but they heard understood my needs, gave me a prime spot where they could monitor what was being served to me, and they made sure I got plenty of whatever I wanted; and nothing I didn't.
It's amazing how many people it takes for just one person to live well, and how generous, tolerant, and welcoming Udupi people are. 🙇‍♂️
