Default Does anyone here have gout?

Allopurinol is my friend.

Does cheese bother you?

No. Spinach, swiss chard, and certain other vegetables taste metallic
and nasty to me. I assume that's a warning so I eat them in moderation,
seldom.

He has gout because he eats those foods. Ask HIM what he is willing to
eat and willing to suffer if he chooses wrong. You aren't his doctor.
You know if he doesn't get what he wants, he'll stop out to eat.
