Fruits were a different matter. He tried nearly all of them, leading Twilight to wonder if his ancestors had been frugivores; the success continued with dairy products. Like most unicorns, Twilight never understood the earth pony fondness for cheeses—they stank and were fattening—but Dale seemed to like them. She wondered if the scavenger-like behavior Lyra had said he’d displayed was due to malnutrition. If he wouldn’t—or couldn’t—eat grasses, cereals, and vegetables, he was probably at risk for all kinds of nutritional deficiencies. Cheese simply didn’t offer the healthy proteins a good clover did, and he’d be hard-pressed to get enough vitamins without eating at least some grasses. Maybe they just hadn’t found the right kind yet.
