    That’s a batshit insane diet, not a vegan one. Fish allowed but potatoes and tomatoes forbidden? What is the logic here? Or is this just some weird “diet” that’s supposed to make you more “pure” or something?

      Tomatoes and potatoes are both nightshades.
      Some people think they exacerbate autoimmune conditions and digestive issues. Some are simply allergic or intolerant to it.

      Probably, OP was also not having peppers, or eggplants.
