Bananas

Having confidence in her first impressions, Libby distrusted bananas after throwing one up at age two. So despite Cousin Sean’s constant offerings of banana-flavored Jell-o and toothpaste, she refused any contact with them. But for a couple months when she was eighteen, bananas were all she ate, sliced, frozen, and with caramel drizzled over them, until she became sickened by them once more. In England, she feasted solely on bacon and cheese sandwiches on extra thick bread slices. Since then, she has proceeded through the nut family, cashews, pecans, peanuts, macadamia nuts, almonds. For now she dines on sunflower seeds.
