For me it’s Indian food, but then… what else? Ugh… what a question.
Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like… ffff, like tasting heaven.
I mean, I’ve never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it’s a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)
Take the meat parts out and I’ll eat almost anything.
Like my in-laws… Hmmm here’s a great new hummus and salad! Yeah we sprinkled chicken, pork, beef, and shrimp powder and other meat products. It doesn’t change the flavor, we just like gout so much.
Perfectly good meal + smear some dead animal on it.
I’m with you folks, on the whole. A well-prepared, complete-protein vegetarian meal rocks, especially with lots of complimentary seasoning.
Does gout come from consuming animal products? Hmm, I hadn’t heard that, before.

Stuff like cabbage (and Brassica sp.) are best cooked, because otherwise they can be goitrogenic, interfering with the thyroid gland’s function over time. There’s also the (admittedly slim) chance that some animal has passingly added something undesirable to a veggie, be it parasite or disease-causing.
Which is why it’s important to do either a mild chlorine wash of any veggies you eat, or at least blanch them. (not trying to lecture anyone here; all that’s just my personal understanding)
Opposite actually - fructose intake, alcohol intake (same pathway as fructose in liver), advanced glycation end products (glucose intake) are the major drivers of gout.

Basically the old connection that meat can drive uric acid a bit and uric acid is a component of gout isn’t actually helpful, during a active flare up avoiding meat can help reduce uric acid levels a tiny bit but it does nothing to address the systemic cause of the gout in the first place. i.e. Watermelons have a high water content but are not causal in drownings, but avoid eating watermelons while actively drowning… same thing
Appreciate your opinions (which I’ll need to research), and especially enjoyed the following:
😂
(oh my, that’s a good one)
From personal experience getting stranded in s foreign country as a kid with my dad unable to walk or move due to uric acid and gout, your worst offenders are red meat, pork and shrimp. Shrimp surprisingly being the worse one. But carry a long needle syringe to get your knees back on the road sooner! LOL.
My opinion is that a little meat is OK. I don’t eat meat but I can see where others need it like a drug.
Wow, actually… yeah?
