DrXmus Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 We will be featuring an Asparagus menu including amazing wild domestic Asparagus from Oregon and local Asparagus from Spring Valley of West Virginia. Some WV ramps will show up too! 4 courses with 5 asparagus dishes plus dessert for $39 starting tomorrow till the wild asparagus run out! While this menu sounds delicious, I would not want to be in the bathroom at Dino's on that night! A restaurant-worth of asparagus pee. Not pleasant.

Not pleasant. Just think of it as Sauvignon Blanc. (or Pee-No Clear) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrXmus Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 Actually, not everyone carries the gene for this phenomenon. Funny, I just learned this a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was universal before that. Apparently, I'm a mutant because I can't even stand to be in the bathroom with myself on asparagus night. Usually, I forget to be ready for the smell and get freaked out that I've got some fecal organism causing a UTI. You'd think I'd learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Blume Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Aspirating guys pee: fact. Asparagi do not pee. Nor do broccoli or peas. Ergo, fiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lperry Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Nobody's worried about the ramps? I have a bottle of ramp vinegar I made a few years ago, and it may never leave the cabinet because I can't stand to open the thing. Anyone want it? I'll bring it to the picnic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Delicious Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 One of my friends came across the Mandles website (for man candles), and so we spent a good deal of drunken thought on possible candle scents. One we came up with was asparagus pee. Title? Asparagus Release. You're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pool Boy Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I thought it was universal, too. When it is beet season and I overindulge.....there's an interesting color to the er, urine. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrXmus Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 I thought it was universal, too. When it is beet season and I overindulge.....there's an interesting color to the er, urine. lol Funny, I recently learned that wasn't universal, too! Some people can metabolize the pigment better than others. Apparently, I'm a mutant there, also. If asparagus pee is frightening, what about peeing red?! Freaked me out the first time it happened to me. I've heard of people that go to the hospital for red urine or red stool only to find out it's due to the beets they had the night before. I've seen a canine patient for the same thing; Mom fed him some beets the night before. His urine looked like mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
