48 hours fasting with only beer to sustain me, waking at 1am and quasi-dreaming eating food for the past two nights... armed with a bottle of whiskey... tonight will be a feast to remember! raw herring in sour cream sauce made more so sour / piquant with gherkins and granny smith apples: now imagine the salivating effect this might have on an empty stomach - i might as well be thinking of drinking acetum (acetic acid / white vinegar), to ensure my stomach doesn't over-bulge from the shrinking as byproduct of fasting... acetic acid coupled with hydrochloric acid in the stomach... two acids, a bit of food... warring tribes of acidity to ensure pleasant digestion.
