We ate it warm for dessert last night and , oh ! , so good . I fell asleep thinking that next time I might leave the pecans out of the torte itself and try to create some sort of crunchy , nutty crust instead ( is it any wonder I dream about food ? ) , but when I ate a cold slice .

Give answer the following question using evidence from the above passage: Why am I able to eat pecans ?
None of the above choices .
