20 Foods Which Shouldn’t Be Eaten Together I’d like to translate these twenty food combinations for you, including their purported effects, and in turn I want you to realize that this was not meant to be a joke. These health officials are completely serious. This notice was passed around the city in hopes that people would think twice before serving, let’s say…rabbit meat and celery in the same meal. Apparently, all your guests would walk away bald. I’m doing you a favor here, so you might want to take some notes. Just in case you think I’m making this up
1. Pork + water chestnuts = a stomach ache 2. Beef + chestnuts = vomiting 3. Lamb meat + watermelon = a decreased vigor for life 4. Dog meat + green beans = poisonous to the body 5. Rabbit meat + celery = loss of hair 6. Chicken + celery = a decreased vigor for life 7. Goose meat + chicken eggs = a decreased vigor for life 8. Turtle meat + amaranth (a nutritional herb) = poisonous to the body 9. Carp + liquorice (not the candy) = poisonous to the body 10. Crab + persimmon fruit = diarrhea 11. Chicken eggs + saccharin = poisonous to the body, potentially fatal 12. Brown sugar + preserved eggs = poisonous to the body 13. White wine (白酒) + persimmon = chest pains 14. Onions + honey = damaged vision 15. Radish + fungus = dermatits (a skin disease) 16. Bean curd + honey = makes you deaf 17. Potatoes + bananas = (I can’t figure the translation for this one…sorry. Anyone willing to try it out and let me know its effects?) 18. Bananas + sweet potato = a bloated belly 19. Peanuts + cucumbers = harmful to the body 20. Sweet potatoes + persimmon = lithiasis (formation of stones, such as the kidney stone)
