Would you rather...

I love dessert, but I don't think I could do without meat or fish, so how about a dispensation for dessert on Sundays only,which is very often what I do anyway.

Me too Alie, I can eat and drink things but only once! I G&T/glass of wine, a week!
[fed up emoticon]

I can't think about this one - there are too many things I can't eat already!

I rarely eat dessert and I cook them only when I have guests. However, I do eat lots of fruit but not immediately after a main meal so I don't think that counts. I was a vegetarian for a year or so but missed fish so much I went back to eating it. I do eat meat but eat far more fish. I think the human body is geared up to be omnivorous, i.e. to eat a mixture of animal and vegetable foods. I suspect it is not especially geared up to eating chocolate gâteau, ice cream, tiramisu, crêpe suzette and sticky toffee pudding.

Asparagus with butter and lemon perhaps, (not hollandaise, I have an egg yolk allergy!)

I'd hate to live without meat or fish and, could maybe just about cope without dessert but, as our eldest granddaughter says, if nobody sees, it doesn't matter!

Not me! I don't have an aversion to green food! (Unless it's mouldy, of course)

Don't eat meat or fish, and don't really care for puddings that much. Now if, in place of pudding, you were to substitute wine..

None for you then anagram

Poisonous!

What about some fresh English asparagus dripping with butter or Hollandaise Jeni? Doesn't that do it for you?

Does flapjack with coffee count as pudding if you don't eat puddings as such?

Might manage a little piccalilli or pickled red cabbage!

Very! Ug!

Lettuce is poisonous?

Well I do! I don't like veg! Particularly raw!
Anyway anything green is poisonous!

Yes, you probably could. And you couldn't live on meat and fish alone (well, perhaps you could, but you'd have serious vitamin deficiency and probably end up with gout).

You can eat other things, as well as desserts, just not meat or fish.

And NO DESSERTS with meat or fish in them especially. I know you were all looking forward to some beef and custard or sausage cupcakes [bleugh emoticon]

I would be impressed if you could live on just desserts, though - could work in another "would your rather".

We are having apricot crumble tonight. Nourishing! And good.

So, what do you think the OP meant Anagram?

A dessert should be a nourishing part of the meal!

I think you could live on desserts. Include eggs, dried fruits, fresh fruits, wholewheat flour, milk etc.

I'm not saying I would.

Yes, I think it's cheating to make out you could live on puds alone, jingl! Certainly it's not what the OP had in mind!

Havent really got a sweet tooth. Now a nice nibble of rochefort, or bleu d'auvergne?

But surely the whole point of desserts is that they are not nourishing?! (Well - they might nourish the soul but I suspect that's not what you meant

Haha j, you do make me
