When I was growing up, my neighbor had a persimmon tree. I mostly associate them with the smell of rotting fruit. I was actually shocked to learn that people eat them, that they were more than just nature’s trash.

idk about that… ime I can happily eat a much, much higher fat diet than my central european wife, but my ability to handle all the starch that they want to serve in virtually all of continental europe is pretty borderline.

I think this is the Anglo part of me tbh. there’s an incredible visual gag in one of the recent Alan Partridge series where he “goes vegetarian” and it shows all the meat and sausages “that he would normally eat in a week” piled up in his kitchen and replaced with like, a bunch of loose greens as vegetarians were imagined in the 70s, and that definitely felt closer to my diet than my experience of Italy
