I hate peas, and no one can me try it, ever again!

I don't like peas. My dog won't touch lettuce of any sort. She loooves shredded sharp cheddar cheese so once when I was making a salad I squished some cheese on a piece of lettuce. She took it in her mouth, ate the cheese and spit the lettuce on the floor.

That is so sad! Peas are one of my favorites!! In fact, I JUST made some. I even love them just plain boiled with not even salt or anything

Hubby generally does not like them either, but he eats some when I make them I make them with parsley (dried or fresh), a little bit of black pepper, a good amount soy sauce, a little bit of liquid smoke, and some flour to bind it into a light brown sauce.

But I think we are getting off topic here

That hasn't stopped us before . . .

OK back to spinach.. . .

I don't think a water quality issue would have caused their stomachs to rip straight open and spill out their intestines.

Dropsy can do that, if it is combined with overfeeding.

i've never known this. can i ask where you learned this information from? i am very interested to also learn,.

I've seen it happen. It was how my last goldfish died before I knew how to care for them. (I was young and got a bowl full for a birthday of mine.) I just thought he was fat and enjoyed food, but looking back he was heavily pineconed and one of his sores just split, causing him to split wide open.

Sorry that personal experience is the only thing I can give. I'd like to be able to link you to an article.
