Lots of foods.
Like batter before it's baked, shehakol to mezonos

OK. But the batter must be placed into an oven for the food to change.
The question is about a food that will change brachos on its own, without doing something to it. Just sitting on the table.

This is probably not what you are thinking of, but Shmuel hanavi was known to never stay at other people's houses or eat from their food. He didn't want to be the type of leader that "takes" from the people. Like Moshe, he was able to say atthe end of his life that he did not take even donkey from the people.

He also used to travel a lot to rebuke the people, so maybe he did not stay in same places each time. (We know his father Elkana had the practice of going to Shilo for the shalosh regalim, each time by a different route, in order to be mezake more people in the mitzva of shalosh regalim. It's possible Shmuel had this tradition from his father. )

No. This was a navi whom Hashem sent on a mission and explicitly told him not to return the same way he went, and not to eat or drink along the way

Binyomin is correct.

Dovid sinned with Batsheva.


https://www.aish.com/atr/David......html

"The Talmud, however, makes a sweeping statement regarding David's behavior: "Whoever says David sinned is only in error" (Shabbat 56a). "

This is the reason I wrote Dovid hamelech. But according to the aish article, Dovids did sin-in taking what didn't belong to him. He did not sin with adultery.

I remember a story of one great Rabbi (Eluzor ben Azarya maybe?) who said that sin decays a persons body after burial, not lack of life or the earth etc. And years after he was buried, his body was dug up and found to be in perfect condition-proving he never sinned. Is this the 3rd person?

Shaul disguised himself and went himself to the Isha Yidonis. He needed to ask Shmuel.
The woman saw Shmuel but couldn't hear him, Shaul heard him but couldn't see him.
Shaul came down "upside down" feet first instead of head first as kovod to Shaul so she knew it was Shaul.

I guess I really need to thank Rabbi Juravel for filling my brain with all this stuff.
My kids love his CDs even though I really don't like his voice. But it plays round the clock.

An unripe banana would be Shehakol. But if you leave it alone it will ripen and become Ha'adama

Another one - and Esrog on the last day of Sukkos you can bentch lulav with it. Leave it until after Y"T and now you can make Ha'etz on it.
