I rarely is ever use mint or pineapple in savory dishes, so this is really outside of my comfort zone. I'm really curious though... Maybe I need to "try it to believe it"!

The flavors in this salad sound amazing! I have fresh pineapple now, and would love to use it in a sweet/savory preparation. I usually freeze the leftovers after a couple of days for adding to smoothies, but this seems like a "higher and better" use! You've captured my interest in ACD, and I'm looking forward to poking around DDD to learn more. Perhaps you can give me an easy answer, though, to this question: do you avoid kombucha tea on your ACD? If so, is it possible that it will be introduced at a later stage, or will it always be a no-no?

No, I haven't yet been brave enough to eat the dandelion from my own yard, because the previous tenant used lots of pesticides in the garden (similar to yours, I guess). Johanna, Wow, thanks so much! I think I was too tired to be nervous ;) Mom, Oops, sorry about that. There are worse addictions, though, I suppose! ;) Leah, I can't have any other tropical fruits (too sweet), but pineapple is the exception because of that bromelain I mentioned. I don't know if it would be safe for everyone, but it's worth asking your ND/holistic health care provider/ACD doctor. :) Jessy, Thank you so much! :D And I know you will love those fries! Yes, Phase II is definitely an improvement on Phase I ;) For most people, pineapple is okay as the exception to the food-combining rule (but I know that some people are really strict about it and don't eat the pineapple anyway). But I'm glad you figured it out and rid yourself of those tummy troubles! And yay for gifts of glorious green mint! Courtney, I don't think we need to be embarrassed about that one--it's (a) too delicious and (b) too expensive to waste a single bit! :) Iris, It's a bit unusual, yes, but very tasty nonetheless. :) Shannon, Wow, now I'm craving watermelon! ;) And thanks so much re: the clip--it was a gas.

I am embarrassed to admit to gnawing on the skin I cut off too, just to make sure I didn't cut off too much of the juicy delicious flesh... :-) Your dressing sounds great--I will have to try it soon!
