Yep, I can't do yogurt, either; it's been like that since I was about 13
years old and I've been bummed about it ever since. Even cream-based soups
(which I LOVE, by the way) I can't tolerate - although I still try because
they're *so* good. I've gotta have my fix; I just suffer for it later.
LOL.

Fruit is another "iffy" thing. I can eat blueberries, cantaloupe, pears,
papaya and apples. Pretty much everything else is off-limits. I'm not
complaining, it's just something I've learned to deal with since I was a
kid. :~)
